Ghashgais are hand-knotted on a ground loom by the Ghashgai tribe who live in the Fars upland near Shiraz. The Ghashgai people are the most developed of the Fars tribes. The warp and weft are of cotton or wool and the pile is wool. The variety and quality of the colors are superior and the numbers of Turkish knots are about 100. The knotting on the better items can be extremely fine by nomadic standards, with 200 or more knots per square inch. Ghashgais are often confused with Shiraz carpets, which are made in and around the town of Shiraz using Ghashgai designs. Ghashgais are harder wearing, with a compact pile and faster, more varied colours. Large items are rare and Ghashgai also produce delightful textile artifacts, including bags, camel and donkey trappings and kelims. Size: 4'9" x 3'5"
