Product Title: Hand-woven Gabbeh from Iran "Pastoral Animal Paradise" Natural Beige x Brown

Product Description and Features

This small, warm Gabbeh is meticulously hand-woven by skilled weavers of the Qashqai nomadic tribe in southwestern Iran. It is an exquisite piece that encapsulates a pastoral world and the precise craftsmanship of artisans in a compact size.

The greatest charm of this Gabbeh is the expressive depiction of adorable animals woven into the gentle natural beige ground color. A beautiful, varying brown border frames the central cream-colored main field, giving the whole piece an elegant and serene impression.

Animal motifs in the central field:

Upper section: Delicate motifs expressing colorful bouquets and small birds

Upper central: Botanical motifs with vibrant red flowers

Central: Large animal (sheep or goat) depicted in deep blue and warm orange

Lower section: Two small animals symmetrically placed (with green and red accents)

Border design: The double border, consisting of a dark brown outer frame and a mid-tone beige-brown, is designed to make the central animals stand out even more. Small geometric patterns are also woven into the border, creating overall unity.

As can be seen from the detailed photos of the reverse side, this Gabbeh is woven with astonishingly high density. With approximately 25-30 knots per square centimeter, even small motifs are clearly rendered. This technical skill is a testament to the proud tradition of the nomadic people, passed down through generations.

All colors used are natural dyes derived from plants. While harnessing the natural texture of wool, pigments extracted from plants such as saffron, madder, and walnuts will deepen in color over time.
