Product Title: Hand-Woven Gabbeh, Animal Motifs, Gray x Multicolor, 100% Natural Wool, Made in Iran

Product Description and Features

This is an authentic Gabbeh rug meticulously crafted using traditional hand-weaving techniques passed down through generations by the nomadic tribes of Iran, the homeland of Persian carpets. Though compact at approximately 2 feet by 3 feet, it is an exquisite piece with an overwhelming presence and artistic value.

The greatest charm of this Gabbeh lies in its adorable design, featuring a calming gray base color adorned with vivid blue, orange, and red animal motifs. Impressive orange floral and star motifs are placed in the center, acting as accents to the overall design.

Detailed Design Composition:

Central Field: The main area, densely woven with high-quality gray wool.

Border Design: A cream-colored border with charming blue, orange, and red animals arranged in a regular pattern.

Animal Motifs: Stylized designs of animals familiar to nomadic life, such as sheep, goats, and camels.

Central Ornamentation: Traditional floral and star motifs vividly expressed in orange and yellow.

As can be seen from the detailed image of the back, it is woven with a high density of approximately 8-10 knots per square centimeter, allowing for precise depiction of even minute motifs. This technical skill is a testament to the master craftsmanship passed down through generations of artisans.

All dyes used are derived from natural plants. The colors, extracted from madder, indigo, saffron, and other plants, deepen and become more beautiful over time, gaining character with continued use.

Notes and Care Instructions

Daily Care

Light vacuuming 2-3 times a week (medium to low suction, following the pile direction)

The gray areas may show dirt more easily, so frequent cleaning is recommended.

Periodically flip the rug to ensure good airflow 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 Stains/Spills

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

Rapid action is crucial, especially in the gray areas where stains are more visible.

Lightly dab with a towel firmly wrung out in water with diluted 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 have it cleaned by a specialist who understands the characteristics of vegetable dyes and multi-color combinations.

Avoid self-washing, as professional techniques are needed to prevent color transfer and fading.

Characteristics of High-Density Weave

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

Placing heavy furniture in the same spot for extended periods may leave indentation marks.

Despite its compact size, it has a substantial weight.

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

Sizes may vary by ±1-2 cm.

Being a natural material, there may be slight expansion or contraction depending on the season and humidity.

Due to the nature of vegetable dyes, natural color changes will occur over time.
