Characteristics of Persian Hand-woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh rugs are hand-woven by the Qashqai tribe, who nomadize in the Zagros Mountains of Iran, using plant-dyed wool with long piles, deeply rooted in their daily life. The Persian Variant wool used in this product has excellent durability to survive in the harsh environment of the Zagros Mountains and contains a high amount of oil to regulate body temperature effectively, resulting in a soft and pleasant texture. Gabbeh rugs, woven meticulously by Iranian nomads using this naturally dyed wool, are characterized by their fluffy and comfortable feel. A well-woven Gabbeh is said to last for 100 years, boasting superior durability. Originating from a climate with extreme daily temperature differences, Gabbeh rugs are warm in winter and airy in summer, preventing heat buildup. And above all, their artistry is remarkable. Gabbeh rugs created by the nomads' imagination often feature designs of animals and plants, making each one a unique, original piece. They can be laid on the floor or even displayed on walls as art. Why not find your own special Gabbeh that you can cherish forever?

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom along the direction of the pile. If stains are a concern: dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly 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 variations in shape, pattern distortion, weaving irregularities, and dyeing inconsistencies. Please understand that these are part of the charm of a hand-woven product. Additionally, Gabbeh rugs are woven from sheep's wool. Therefore, a unique odor from the dyes used to color the wool may be present. This odor will gradually dissipate with use, but please be aware of this beforehand.
