This antique Gabbeh rug, handmade and one-of-a-kind, showcases a bold tribal design rooted in Persian weaving tradition and dated to circa 1910. Its hand-knotted wool pile features stacked diamond medallions, stylized botanical motifs, and saturated accents of blue, rust, ivory, and gold framed by a lively geometric border, giving the piece strong graphic presence and collector appeal. An ideal accent for a living room, bedroom, or office.
Vibrant warm tones of gold, blue, rust, ivory, brown, rose, teal, and black, with a gold field.
Gabbe (also Gabbeh) rugs are woven by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribal women in the Zagros Mountains of southern Iran, primarily by the Qashqai and Luri tribes. The word "gabbeh" means "raw" or "unfinished" in Persian, reflecting the bold, improvisational aesthetic of these textiles — thick-piled, loosely knotted, and filled with naive figurative imagery: animals, people, trees, and abstract forms drawn directly from the weaver's imagination and daily life.
Their thick, soft pile, earthy natural dyes, and utterly original imagery have made Gabbeh rugs enormously popular since they were "discovered" by the Western market in the 1980s. They bring immediate warmth and personality to any interior.
