Characteristics of Persian Hand-Woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh are long-pile rugs rooted in daily life, hand-woven by the Qashqai tribe, who nomadize in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, using vegetable-dyed wool. The Persian Variant wool used in this product has excellent durability to survive in the harsh environment of the Zagros Mountains, and a soft, pleasant texture with a high oil content to effectively regulate body temperature. Gabbeh, hand-woven by Iranian nomads, one thread at a time, using this naturally dyed wool, are characterized by their fluffy and comfortable feel. Well-woven Gabbeh are said to last 100 years, making them extremely durable. Born from the climate with extreme temperature differences between day and night, Gabbeh are warm in winter and airy in summer, preventing you from feeling hot. And above all, there is its artistry.

If you are concerned about stains: Dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly with water to remove the detergent and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.
