This masterpiece Gabbeh, truly a "rainbow pasture," was created by skilled weavers from the Shiraz region of southwestern Iran, the home of Persian carpets, using the rich color sense of nomads and traditional hand-weaving techniques. Measuring 610mm x 430mm, this impressive rug features a colorful patchwork composition and a paradise of adorable animals woven into its design.

The most striking feature of this Gabbeh is its patchwork composition, as if it were inlaid with colorful jewels. The warm golden ochre main field in the center is framed by vivid border panels.

Upper border: A five-color composition of olive green, orange-red, deep blue, crimson red, and olive green again. Side borders: A varied arrangement of light blue, golden yellow, deep blue, orange-red, and olive green. Lower border: Symmetrical to the upper border yet with subtly different color combinations, creating movement and rhythm throughout.

In the golden ochre central field, various animals are arranged regularly yet freely:

Upper section: Sheep and goats with deep blue bodies and red accents.

Upper center: Animals arranged symmetrically around a central white flower motif.

Center: A large animal (cow or horse) depicted in a vibrant combination of blue and red.

Lower center: A decorative band sprinkled with small, colorful flower motifs.

Lower section: A procession of four animals depicted in a combination of orange and red.

Each colorful border panel features different animal and plant motifs woven into it:

Silhouettes of white sheep and camels

Colorful birds

Geometric flower and leaf patterns

Adorable depictions of small creatures

As can be seen from the detailed image of the back, this Gabbeh is woven with astonishing high density. The extremely sharp boundaries between different colors and the technical skill in precisely rendering even small motifs are the culmination of craftsmanship passed down through generations.

All the rich colors used are plant-dyed with dyes extracted from natural plants. The deep hues created by dozens of plants such as saffron, madder, indigo, and turmeric will become more beautiful with age, marking the history shared with its owner.

Precautions

Daily care instructions

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

Due to the multi-color usage, dirt may be more noticeable on some colors than others. Please clean the entire rug evenly.

Flip it over regularly to ensure good ventilation and prevent moisture and dust mites.

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

Handle the white fringe parts with particular care to prevent tangling.

Emergency treatment for dirt and stains

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

Due to the multi-color usage, choose the treatment method carefully based on the color of the stained area.

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

Always remove detergent completely with clean water and dry thoroughly.

Do not leave wet for long periods to prevent color transfer between adjacent colors.

About professional cleaning

Regular professional cleaning is recommended (please consult us).

It is important to have it handled by a professional who understands the characteristics of multi-colored plant dyes and complex color combinations.

Professional techniques are required to prevent color transfer and fading, so never attempt to wash it yourself.

Quality and specifications

Due to the nature of hand-weaving, there may be slight individual differences in the placement of animal motifs and color boundaries.

Sizes may have an error of ±1-2 cm.

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

Due to the nature of plant dyes, natural color changes will occur over time. Especially with multi-color usage, the rate of change may vary for each color.

The detailed expression of animal motifs has a unique warmth characteristic of hand-weaving.

Due to the high-density weave, some shedding may occur in the initial stages.
