This authentic Gabbeh carpet has been meticulously crafted by skilled weavers in Shiraz, southwestern Iran, the holy land of Persian carpets, using hand-weaving techniques passed down through generations. The convenient size of 580mm x 410mm embodies the rich spiritual world of the nomadic Qashqai people and their deep reverence for nature.

The deep indigo blue background and passionate crimson red central field create a striking contrast. This color scheme evokes the image of nomads looking up at the night sky and warm, family-friendly scenes gathered around a campfire, and is imbued with a prayer for harmony between humans and nature.

In the crimson red center, white silhouettes of sheep and goats are regularly arranged. These animal motifs are the source of life for nomads and a symbol of a rich life. The golden floral pattern in the center represents the sun and fertility, while the pure white floral motif represents peace and hope.

The indigo blue border is dotted with colorful small animal and plant motifs. The small creatures, painted in a combination of orange, green, and white, represent the activity of life in the grasslands. Special motifs on the four corners create a harmonious whole.

As you can see from the detailed image on the back, the knots are tied at an incredible density per square centimeter. The clarity of the color boundaries and the delicate outlines of the animal motifs are the result of the outstanding skill of skilled artisans. The white fringes on all four sides are also proof of traditional hand-finishing techniques.

The subtle gradations and deep colors created by dyes derived from natural plants are impossible to achieve with chemical dyes. You can enjoy the vibrant colors that change beautifully over time.
