{"product_id":"dara","title":"Dara","description":"\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully characterful handwoven antique Qashqai rug featuring a pair of bold stepped tribal medallions set against a rich burnt orange and terracotta field, framed by an intricately detailed geometric border in deep indigo, ivory and warm walnut tones. Woven by Qashqai nomadic tribes in the Shiraz region of southern Iran, this piece is a beautiful example of the expressive, free-flowing artistry these rugs are so highly prized for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandwoven from high-quality wool, the rug displays a beautifully earthy palette of burnt terracotta, deep navy, tobacco brown and soft ivory, all mellowed through decades of age into a warm, lived-in finish. The angular medallions, animals, scattered tribal motifs and wonderfully irregular geometry give the piece an honesty and charm that can only come from true nomadic weaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes antique Qashqai rugs so special is their individuality. Woven from memory rather than formal workshop patterns, every piece reflects the creativity and traditions of its maker, with symbols representing protection, nature and everyday tribal life. The result is a rug that feels both deeply historic and effortlessly contemporary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis smaller size makes it incredibly versatile, perfect for an entrance hall, beside a bed, in a reading nook or layered into a larger space for added warmth and texture. Its rich earthy tones pair beautifully with natural wood, leather and modern interiors alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandwoven from wool with a beautifully soft pile and authentic age-related wear throughout, this rug has the kind of patina collectors and designers are constantly searching for.
