Description
Gabbeh rugs are a type of Persian rug known for their distinct style, characterized by simplicity, bold designs, and rich colors. Originating from the nomadic tribes of Iran, particularly the Qashqai and Luri tribes, Gabbeh rugs have a long history and cultural significance.
These rugs typically feature geometric patterns, abstract motifs, and tribal symbols woven with thick, hand-spun wool. The designs are often asymmetrical and spontaneous, reflecting the weaver’s creativity and individual expression. Gabbeh rugs are known for their earthy color palette, including deep reds, blues, greens, and warm browns, achieved through the use of natural dyes.
One distinguishing feature of Gabbeh rugs is their thick pile, which provides both warmth and a luxurious texture. They are hand-knotted using traditional techniques, with each rug taking several months to complete. The knots are typically larger and looser compared to other Persian rugs, giving Gabbeh rugs their distinctive plushness and casual charm.
Gabbeh rugs are versatile and complement various interior design styles, from rustic and bohemian to contemporary and eclectic. Whether used as floor coverings, wall hangings, or decorative accents, they add warmth, character, and a sense of cultural authenticity to any space.
As symbols of nomadic life and Persian craftsmanship, Gabbeh rugs hold cultural significance and are often cherished as heirlooms, passed down through generations. Their timeless beauty, unique designs, and rich history continue to captivate collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
