Antique Persian Nomadic Gabbeh Rug | Handspun Wool
Woven by nomadic communities in Persia during the mid twentieth century, this Gabbeh rug reflects a tradition of handspun wool, hand dyed fibres, and intuitive geometric composition. The field is organised around bold lozenge medallions and stepped forms, framed by a tightly worked border that anchors the composition without ornamental excess. Gabbeh rugs were produced for domestic use rather than export, prioritising durability, warmth, and symbolic patterning over refinement. The natural palette of sand, camel, and umber tones gives the surface a grounded, settled presence that reads comfortably in both architectural and lived in interiors.
Measures: 144 cm W × 227 cm D × 2 cm H
