This exquisite Gabbeh rug, a true "Forest Festival," was crafted by skilled weavers in southwestern Iran, the heartland of Persian carpets. It combines the vibrant color sense of nomads with traditional hand-weaving techniques passed down for centuries. The central field, enveloped in deep forest green, features a lively dance of orange and red stripes, weaving a paradise of adorable animals.

Product Description and Features

Aesthetics of Color Composition

The greatest charm of this Gabbeh is its warm main field, framed by a deep forest green border. The central part is composed of four horizontal stripes, with orange and crimson red alternating in a regular yet vibrant design.

Detailed Depiction of Motifs

Each stripe is adorned with various animal and plant motifs, woven with the weaver's affection:

Top Orange Stripe: Birds with blue feathers and small quadrupeds are symmetrically arranged, with a white flower-like decorative motif in the center.

Second Red Stripe: Silhouettes of goats and sheep, depicted in deep blue, dance alongside small orange accents.

Third Orange Stripe: Bird and animal motifs reappear, arranged with subtle variations, creating a rhythmic change.

Bottom Red Stripe: Echoes the top stripe but with its own unique arrangement, bringing a sense of unity and movement to the whole.

Exceptional Weaving Technique

As can be seen from the detailed images, this Gabbeh is woven with astonishingly high density. Precise weaving, with dozens of knots per square centimeter, clearly expresses even the smallest details of the motifs. The boundaries between different colors are extremely clear, a testament to the craftsmanship passed down through generations.

Charm of Natural Materials

All the rich colors used are plant dyes extracted from natural plants. The deep hues created by dozens of plants such as saffron, madder, indigo, turmeric, and pomegranate will become more beautiful with age, marking a history with its owner. The wool material has natural antibacterial and deodorizing properties, and its moderate elasticity provides an exceptional feel underfoot.

Notes and Care Instructions

Daily Care Methods

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

Be diligent with cleaning, as dirt tends to show easily on the gray areas.

Regularly flip the rug over to allow for air circulation, preventing 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 Stain/Spill Treatment

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

Prompt action is crucial as stains are particularly noticeable on the gray areas.

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

Always completely remove detergent with clean water and dry thoroughly.

Do not leave wet for extended periods to prevent color transfer from red areas.

About 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 plant dyes and multi-color combinations.

Avoid self-cleaning with water as professional techniques are required to prevent color transfer and fading.

About High-Density Weaving Characteristics

Due to high-quality weaving, some initial shedding may occur.

Placing heavy furniture in the same spot for long periods may leave pressure marks.

Despite its compact size, it has a substantial weight.
