Characteristics of Persian Hand-woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh rugs are hand-woven by the Qashqai tribe, who are nomads in the Zagros Mountains of Iran. These rugs are deeply rooted in their daily life, made from plant-dyed wool with a long pile. The Persian Variant wool used in this product is known for its excellent durability, necessary for survival in the harsh Zagros Mountains, and its soft, pleasant feel due to its high lanolin content, which helps regulate body temperature. Gabbehs are characterized by their fluffy and pleasant texture, as they are hand-woven by Iranian nomads, meticulously knotting each strand of this wool dyed with natural dyes. A well-woven Gabbeh is said to last for 100 years, indicating its exceptional durability. Originating from a climate with significant temperature fluctuations between day and night, Gabbehs are also known for being warm in winter and well-ventilated in summer, preventing them from feeling hot. And, above all, there is their artistic quality. The Gabbeh rugs created by the nomads from their imagination often feature designs of animals and plants, with each piece being a unique, one-of-a-kind original. They can be laid on the floor, of course, but are also artistic enough to be hung on a wall. Why not find your own special Gabbeh, a piece you can cherish for a lifetime?

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust by vacuuming or sweeping along the direction of the pile. For stubborn stains: Dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water and gently wipe the surface with a tightly wrung towel. Then, carefully wipe with a damp cloth to remove the detergent and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Important Notes

Due to being hand-woven, there may be irregularities in shape and pattern, weaving inconsistencies, and color variations. Please understand that these are part of the charm of a hand-woven item. Additionally, Gabbeh rugs are woven from sheep's wool. Therefore, a distinctive odor from the wool dyes may be present. This odor will gradually dissipate with use, but please be aware of this in advance.
