Persian Gabbeh Rug – Eco-Friendly Handwoven Wool
This Persian Gabbeh rug is a thick, hand-knotted floor covering crafted by tribal artisans in Shiraz, located in Persia's Fars Province. Made from 100% hand-spun wool and dyed with natural vegetable dyes, it offers an eco-friendly addition to any home decor.
The rug measures 2.9 by 2.1 metres, making it suitable for larger living spaces or children’s rooms. Its design features a plain field with a single human motif framed abstractly in the corners, complemented by outer borders showcasing intricate animal and human patterns. The colour scheme balances primary hues with contrasting black tones, enhanced by the distinctive 'Abrash' effect—subtle colour variations resulting from different batches of wool and organic dyes, creating natural stripes within the main colour.
Gabbeh rugs are known for their coarser knots and extra thickness compared to typical Persian rugs, providing a solid, durable texture underfoot. This particular piece is unique and crafted to last, though regular maintenance is recommended to preserve its quality.
Ideal for those seeking authentic Persian artistry combined with sustainable materials, this Gabbeh rug adds warmth and cultural character to contemporary Australian homes.
