What Are Shiraz Rugs?
Shiraz rugs are tribal handwoven rugs originating from the nomadic and village communities around Shiraz, Iran — including the Qashqai, Khamseh, Basseri, Luri, and Afshar tribes. Known for their bold patterns and earthy tones, Shiraz rugs are prized for their authenticity and story-rich designs.
Each rug in our Shiraz Gallery is selected for its symbolism, natural dyes, and craftsmanship – no two pieces are alike.
