Product description and features

This beautiful Gabbeh, based on the theme of the "Tree of Life," was spun by skilled weavers in Shiraz, southwestern Iran, the holy land of Persian carpets. Measuring 90cm x 60cm, it is a heartwarming piece that embodies the rich imagination and traditional symbolism of nomads.

Symbolism and beauty of design

The centerpiece of this Gabbeh is the "Tree of Life," a symbol of vitality and fertility in Persian culture. The beautiful tree, with its colorful flowers and leaves symmetrically arranged against a warm cream background, is reminiscent of a paradise scene.

Composition and color palette:

The central Tree of Life: Orange, deep red (burgundy), and navy blue flowers bloom on branches extending from a deep green trunk.

Scattered small flowers: Small plant motifs on both sides express the abundance of nature.

Sun on the top right: The bright orange circular motif symbolizes the sun, which nurtures life.

Lower Earth: Bold color divisions of deep red (crimson) and dark green express the richness of the earth.

Tassels on the four corners: Beautiful fringes woven with colorful threads in red, blue, yellow, and green add a touch of elegance to the entire piece.

Exquisite hand-weaving techniques

As you can see from the detailed images, the shape of each petal and leaf is woven with extreme precision. In particular, the central Tree of Life maintains symmetry while exuding the warmth that only handwoven fabrics can provide, with orange, wine red, and navy flowers arranged in an exquisite balance.

The depth of natural plant dyes

All of the colors used are traditional Iranian plant dyes. The natural pigments extracted from dozens of plants, such as saffron (orange), madder (red), indigo, and turmeric (yellow), deepen in color over time and carve out a history with the user. You can enjoy the natural transitions and depth of colors that can never be achieved with chemical dyes.

Made from 100% high-quality wool from sheep raised in the Iranian highlands, this natural wool offers moisture-regulating, heat-retaining, and elasticity, making it comfortable to wear all year round. It also has natural antibacterial and insect-repellent properties and is easy to care for.
