Product Title: Handwoven Gabbeh, Colorful Border & Tree of Life Motif, Approx. 90x60cm

Product Description & Features

This vibrant Gabbeh rug is handwoven using traditional techniques passed down through generations by nomads in southwestern Iran. Measuring approximately 90x60cm, its convenient size showcases a vivid border design and a beautiful tree of life motif woven into its center.

The greatest charm of this Gabbeh lies in its rich color composition, like a jewel box. A colorful border panel frames the cream-colored main field.

Border Composition:

Top & Bottom: A five-color arrangement of deep blue, crimson red, orange, crimson red again, and deep blue.

Left & Right Sides: A varied color palette of yellow, black (with orange accents), crimson red, deep blue, orange, green, yellow, and deep blue.

In the central cream-colored field, a graceful tree of life motif is depicted in reddish-brown, symbolizing the traditional "life and prosperity" found in Persian rugs.

Each border panel is meticulously woven with charming motifs rooted in nomadic life, such as white animal silhouettes, colorful birds, and geometric flowers and leaves.

The high weaving density, evident from the detailed reverse side, speaks to the skill of the experienced artisans. The rich colors, dyed with natural vegetable dyes on natural wool, will beautifully transform over time, allowing for long-term enjoyment.

Notes and Care Instructions

Daily Care Instructions

Vacuum 2-3 times a week (light to medium suction along the pile direction).

Grey areas tend to show dirt more easily, so regular cleaning is recommended.

Periodically turn over the rug to allow for overall air circulation, preventing moisture and dust mite growth.

When brushing, gently follow the direction of the pile.

Handle white fringe carefully, ensuring it does not tangle.

Emergency Stain Treatment

If liquids are spilled, immediately blot and absorb with a dry white towel.

Prompt action is crucial, especially in grey areas where dirt is more visible.

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

Always rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove all detergent and allow to dry completely.

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

Professional Cleaning

Regular professional cleaning is recommended (please consult us).

It is important to use a professional cleaner 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.
