[Hand-woven Gabbeh] Traditional craft from Shiraz, Iran, 100% natural wool, antique style, red gradation, rug/carpet

Product description/Explanation of features

Authentic Gabbeh carefully woven using traditional nomadic hand-weaving techniques in the Shiraz region of southwestern Iran, the holy land of Persian carpets. It features a beautiful gradation from deep red to crimson red, and a traditional cross motif is woven in golden color in the center.

The biggest charm of this Gabbeh is its rich color expression and precise weaving technique. The material used is 100% natural wool, dyed with natural dyes derived from plants. The deep red tone created using dyeing techniques inherited from ancient times, such as madder, saffron, and pomegranate peel, shows various expressions depending on the way the light hits it and the time of day, and the more it is used, the more it becomes a richer color.

The cross-shaped motif in the center represents the ``Tree of Life,'' a traditional design that has sacred meaning for nomads. The detailed geometric patterns surrounding it are abstractions of constellations and natural phenomena, and each stitch contains the wishes and prayers of the weaver.

The high-density weave is approximately 120 knots per square inch (KPSI), ensuring durability and quality that will last for generations. The thickness is approximately 15 mm, and the appropriate cushioning properties make it comfortable to the touch, and it can also be expected to block cold air from the floor in the winter.
