This exquisite Gabbeh is a masterpiece, truly befitting the name "Melody of the Earth." It was meticulously hand-woven by skilled weavers of the Qashqai nomadic tribe in Iran, using traditional techniques passed down through generations. The calm, gray base is adorned with vibrant accents of orange, deep navy, and warm green, brilliantly expressing the rich tapestry of nature.

The Charm of Color

The most striking feature of this Gabbeh is the exquisite balance of colors: a natural gray base reminiscent of the earth, golden orange like a desert illuminated by the setting sun, midnight blue representing the deep night sky, and vibrant green evoking fresh foliage. All of these colors are derived from natural plant dyes, deepening over time and weaving a history with its owner.

Weaving Technique

The high-density woven wool provides a comfortable underfoot feel and appropriate cushioning. Cotton is used for the warp threads, ensuring durability and stability. The hand-spun wool weft creates a unique warmth and natural appearance.

Meaning of Motifs

The scattered geometric patterns and small, colorful accents express the nomads' daily lives and their gratitude for nature. The meaning embedded in each motif adds narrative and cultural depth to the space.

Care Instructions & Precautions

Daily Care

Vacuum lightly 2-3 times a week (along the pile with low to medium suction)

The gray areas tend to show dirt easily, so regular cleaning is recommended.

Periodically flip the rug to ensure air circulation and prevent moisture and dust mite buildup.

When brushing, do so gently along the direction of the pile.

Handle the white fringes with particular care to prevent tangling.

Emergency Treatment for Stains & Spills

If liquid is spilled, immediately blot it with a dry white towel to absorb it.

Quick action is crucial, especially in the gray areas where stains are more visible.

Gently dab with a towel wrung out in water diluted with a neutral detergent.

Always remove all detergent with clean water and dry thoroughly.

To prevent color transfer from red areas, do not leave the rug wet for extended periods.

Professional Cleaning

Regular professional cleaning is recommended (please consult us).

It is important to have it cleaned by a professional who understands the characteristics of vegetable dyes and multi-color combinations.

Avoid self-washing as specialized techniques are required to prevent color transfer and fading.
