Origin & Age

This exceptional rug originates from Egypt, a country with a rich history of textile artistry. Created in the 1960s, it reflects a fusion of Persian Qashqai tribal influences and traditional Egyptian weaving techniques. The Nazem Design, inspired by Persian vase motifs, is a tribute to ancient craftsmanship. Over decades, its hand-knotted silk fibers have retained their elegance, making it a rare collector’s item with historical and artistic significance.

Style & Design Details

Intricately hand-knotted, this rug boasts a stunning blend of floral and geometric motifs in a harmonious, symmetrical layout. Inspired by the Qashqai tribal "Nazem" vase design, it features elegant medallions, intricate vine patterns, and ornamental borders. The warm brown and gold silk fibers shimmer under different lighting, enhancing its regal appeal. Its long rectangular shape makes it ideal for hallways, entryways, or intimate living spaces, infusing them with heritage and sophistication.

Care & Maintenance

To preserve the beauty of this silk masterpiece, vacuum gently with a brushless suction setting to prevent fiber damage. Keep the rug away from direct sunlight and high humidity to maintain its natural sheen. In case of spills, blot immediately with a dry cloth—avoid water or harsh chemicals. Professional silk rug cleaning is recommended every 2-3 years to ensure its longevity. With careful handling, this vintage treasure will remain an heirloom-quality piece for generations.

Craft & Material

This rug is an authentic hand-knotted Egyptian piece, made from 100% silk, ensuring an ultra-soft, luxurious feel. Each knot is meticulously crafted by master artisans, following time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Inspired by Persian Qashqai tribal artistry, the Nazem Design showcases the weaver’s precision and skill. The result is a dense, durable weave that embodies the finest traditions of Oriental rug-making, making this piece both an investment and a work of art.

Client Testimonials & Success Stories with Our Premium Rugs

We have a beautiful Afghan

We have a beautiful Afghan, silk rug that after 30+ years was showing wear across the end fringing. From my first engagement with the Pars Rug Gallery team I could not have been happier. I received an accurate assessment, professional clean and excellent repair – at, what I regard to be, a very fair price. I was kept appraised throughout of the progress of the work. My much loved rug now looks fantastic – thank you to the Pars Rug Gallery team.

From start to finish it was very easy

From start to finish it was very easy to work with the company. I have a large 12ftx 9ft rug that needed a very deep clean and moth treatment. It was recommended to also have some mending done which I hadn’t thought of and WOW! What an amazing repair job!!!! Incredible!!!! I am 110% satisfied with the service and price and look forward to enjoying my rug for many years!

Excellent restoration

From first contacting Pars Rug Gallery to seeing photos of the work in progress and then the final result, it has been a wonderful experience. When Arash came to see our family’s old Persian rug, it was in a sorry state with badly worn patches and edges missing. He was able to tell us all about it and explain in detail the work that could be done to restore it. After 5 months, the work has been completed and I am delighted with the result. The rug is beautiful with the true workmanship and colours now revealed.
