Meanwhile, the men and boys will defend and protect the animals. In addition to the traditional lozenge-shaped ground with medallions in the centre repeated in the corners, they will often include many birds, animals, flowers, and trees that they see around them.

This Qashqai piece is your chance to do exactly that! The wool pile has a mid-length and soft feel; the colours are typical of what you might expect from these weavers using natural dyes.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Qashqai tribal confederation comprises five major tribes: the Dareshuri, Farsimadan, Sheshboluki, Amaleh, and Kashkuli. Though these versions differ, we believe that the arrival of the Qashqai Tribes coincided with Genghis Khan's conquests in the thirteenth century. Twice a year, these nomadic people wander between the Zagros mountains and the Gulf, constantly looking for new grazing for their animals.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca title=\"Persian blog from Jennings team\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jenningsrugs.live\/blogs\/news\/qashqai-tribes-of-south-western-iran\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0000ff;\"\u003eQashqai\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e designs are not written or drawn but passed on to daughters who watch their mothers from an early age and gradually develop their skills in a family environment. The women will make these pieces with two or even three generations involved. The piece is knotted by the weavers sitting cross-legged on the floor and the carpet while they craft their art. Meanwhile, the men and boys will defend and protect the animals. In addition to the traditional lozenge-shaped ground with medallions in the centre repeated in the corners, they will often include many birds, animals, flowers, and trees that they see around them.

However, we also find square pieces converted into these beautiful cushions with carpet pile on one side and flatweave (kelim) on the reverse side. Often, these will be decorated with tassels, beads, buttons and sometimes even shells. Tribal or nomadic people use the bags and normally store their bedding during the day, which also acts as a floor cushion. They are handmade from vegetable-dyed wool and often have loops threaded together and a stick fed through them so the bag does not lose its contents.
