Characteristics of Persian Hand-Woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh are long-pile rugs, rooted in daily life, hand-woven by the Qashqai nomads who roam the Zagros Mountains of Iran, using plant-dyed wool. The Persian variant wool used in this product possesses excellent durability, necessary for survival in the harsh environment of the Zagros Mountains, and a soft, pleasant texture rich in oils for effective body temperature regulation.
The Gabbeh, woven by Iranian nomads by hand, one strand at a time, after dyeing the wool with natural dyes, are characterized by their fluffy and pleasant texture.
Well-woven Gabbeh are said to last for 100 years, demonstrating their exceptional durability.
Gabbeh, born from the harsh temperature differences between day and night, also have the characteristic of being warm in winter and well-ventilated in summer, preventing feelings of heat.
And, above all, there is their artistic quality. Gabbeh created from the imagination of nomads often feature designs of animals and plants, and each one is an original, unique item.
They can be laid on the floor, of course, but can also be hung on walls as art.
Why not find your own special Gabbeh that you can cherish for a lifetime?

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom along the pile direction.
If dirt is a concern: Dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel or similar cloth tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly with water 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, dye variations, etc. Please consider these as part of the charm of hand-weaving.
Also, Gabbeh are woven from sheep's wool. Therefore, a unique scent from the dyes used to color the wool may occur.
The scent will gradually dissipate with use, but please be aware of this in advance.
