Description

The Vintage Shiraz Gabbeh Rug, measuring 2.75 by 1.3 metres, is an authentic handwoven piece crafted by Lori tribal artisans from Persia’s Fars Province. This distinctive rug showcases the traditional Gabbeh style, known for its thick, hand-spun wool pile and coarser knots, offering both durability and a plush texture.

Featuring a deep red background, the rug is adorned with charming zigzag patterns and central diamond motifs in a palette of cream, navy blue, and chocolate brown. Notably, the rug displays 'Abrash'—natural colour variations resulting from different wool batches—creating subtle stripes and tonal depth that enhance its vintage appeal.

Made with vegetable dyes on a pure wool foundation, this mid-20th century piece combines rustic craftsmanship with a funky design that suits both retro and contemporary interiors. The fringed edges on both sides add to its traditional character, making it a collectible and one-of-a-kind addition to any space.
