This is a warm and inviting Gabbeh rug, meticulously hand-woven stitch by stitch by skilled artisans in the Shiraz region. Measuring a generous 180cm x 125cm, it features a vibrant golden (mustard yellow) ground color adorned with colorful geometric motifs, creating an enchanting design that brightens the spirits of those who behold it.

As evident from the detailed image of the weave on the reverse side, this Gabbeh is densely woven, with a significant number of knots per square centimeter. This meticulous weaving ensures the clear expression of the beautiful motifs on the surface and provides excellent durability for long-term use.

The square motifs scattered throughout are striking for their vivid contrast of blue (turquoise blue) and red (wine red), reflecting the traditional color sensibility of nomadic peoples in a contemporary context. Interspersed among these geometric patterns are small plant and floral motifs, expressing a love for nature and the joy of life.

Six traditional tassels (fringes) are attached, indicative of the authentic specifications of a hand-woven Gabbeh. These tassels are not merely decorative but also serve as important technical elements marking the beginning and end of the weave.

The natural colors achieved through vegetable dyeing will beautifully transform over time, acquiring a deeper character with continued use. The subtle color variations unique to vegetable dyes, which cannot be replicated by chemical dyes, and the richness of expression they reveal depending on the light, are major attractions of this Gabbeh.

Notes

Characteristics of High-Density Weaving

Due to the high-quality weave, some initial shedding may occur, but it will naturally subside with use.

Placing heavy furniture in the same spot for extended periods may leave compression marks, so regular repositioning is recommended.

Due to its high-density weave, it has a substantial weight.

Daily Care Instructions

Light vacuuming 1-2 times a week (with low to medium suction along the pile).

Handle the tassel area with particular care to prevent tangling.

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

Annual professional cleaning is recommended (please consult us).

Dealing with Stains/Spills

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

While wool has natural water repellency, quick action is crucial.

Gently dab the area with a towel wrung out with water diluted with a mild detergent.

Always remove detergent with clean water and dry thoroughly.

Tassel Care

Handle tassels with care as they are an important feature of hand-woven Gabbeh.

If tangles or knots occur, gently untangle them without forcing.

When vacuuming, avoid the tassels or use the lowest setting with caution.

Quality and Specifications

Due to the nature of hand-weaving, there may be slight individual differences in motif placement and expression. These individual differences are proof of craftsmanship and a value not found in machine-made products.

Sizes may have an error margin of ±2-3cm.

Due to natural materials, there may be slight expansion or contraction depending on the season.
