Characteristics of Persian Hand-woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh are long-pile rugs deeply rooted in daily life, hand-woven by the Qashqai tribe, who nomadize in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, using plant-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 fat content to regulate body temperature effectively. These Gabbeh, hand-woven one by one by Iranian nomads using natural dyes, are characterized by their fluffy and pleasant feel.

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom along the pile.

Then, wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove the detergent and dry in a well-ventilated shade.

Due to being hand-woven, there may be irregularities in shape and pattern, weaving inconsistencies, and dyeing variations. Please consider these as part of the charm of hand-weaving.

The odor will gradually dissipate with use, but please be aware of this beforehand.
