Roshan runner The subtle brownsA 1930s Qashgai gabbeh rug from Fars in south west Persia. Dark red field with a kaleidoscope of hooked and other medallions; dark brown and pale blue twin borders within red, apricot and brown guards; blue and white brocaded top end; brown and white brocading and striped flat weave with plaited goathair tassels at the lower end. Very slight wear, soft handle. Medium pile, wool foundation. A lovely tribal piece with a glorious disregard for symmetry
