The Persian Gabbeh Runner measuring 2.95 x 0.87 metres is a handwoven tribal rug crafted by the Qashqai people of Fars Province, Persia. Made from hand-spun wool, this runner is notably thick and robust, offering a soft texture underfoot thanks to its dense wool pile.
Its design features a minimalistic layout with repeating animal motifs positioned in the four corners and centre, set against a striking blue background. Accents of mustard, green, and ivory add depth and contrast. The borders incorporate a dynamic pattern that adds a sense of movement to the overall composition.
A distinctive characteristic of this Gabbeh is the "Abrash" effect—natural variations in colour within the field and borders caused by different batches of wool and organic vegetable dyes. This creates subtle stripes of varying tones within the same colour palette, enhancing the rug's artisanal appeal.
Handwoven on a strong cotton foundation in Shiraz, this runner brings authentic Persian craftsmanship and vibrant tribal artistry to any hallway or narrow space. Its substantial thickness and solid construction make it durable for everyday use.
