Gabbeh Tree of Life and Animal Paradise - Hand-woven Carpets

Product description/features

This beautiful gabbeh is a ``hymn to life,'' hand-woven by nomads in southwestern Iran. This work is rich in story, with a unique three-tiered layout that incorporates the symbolic tree of life and various animals.

Design features

Upper/lower tiers (beige base area) The tree of life with its powerful red trunk stands majestically on the gray-brown base. Small animals are dotted around it, creating a peaceful landscape of animals resting in the shade of a tree. Yellow-green trees are also included, showing the diversity of nature.

Center tier (cream-based area) The magnificent Tree of Life towering in the center is impressive on the warm cream-colored earth. Rich branches and leaves spread out from the black trunk, and on the right side is another tree with a bright green crown. The sight of small animals running around freely represents an idyllic world full of vitality.

Border Design The deep red border that separates each tier is woven with intricate geometric patterns and small animal motifs. This decorative band elegantly tightens the whole thing and highlights the beauty of each area.

Weaving technique and quality

The precise expressiveness of the high-density hand-woven fabric is impressive. As you can see from the detailed images, each small animal and each branch and leaf of a tree is woven with incredible precision. This is a masterpiece that brings together the best of traditional techniques, created by craftsmen with many years of experience.

It is made from natural wool and dyed with vegetable dyes, so the more you use it, the more it will change in texture.
