Qashqai Patchwork Collage Rug – Diamond-Set Panels on Fuchsia Ground, Southern Iran
This vibrant patchwork carpet stands apart with its diagonal, diamond-set arrangement of vintage rug fragments, pieced together on a bold fuchsia-pink base carrying its own faded floral pattern. Rectangular patches of Southern Iranian tribal weavings are angled on point rather than aligned to the grid, creating a dynamic, quilted rhythm across the surface.
The palette leans warm and golden — amber, mustard, and burnt orange patches dominate, interspersed with olive green, chocolate brown, and deep rust panels, each preserving traces of its original floral or geometric motif beneath the overdyeing. The vivid pink ground peeks through at the diamond edges, giving the whole piece an energetic, jewel-toned character distinct from the red- or black-grounded patchwork styles.
