Features of Persian Hand-woven Gabbeh

Gabbeh are long-pile, hand-woven rugs made by the Qashqai nomads who roam the Zagros Mountains in Iran, using vegetable-dyed wool deeply rooted in their daily lives. The wool used in this product, known as "Persian Valiant," possesses excellent durability to survive the harsh environment of the Zagros Mountains, as well as a soft, pleasant texture rich in oils to effectively regulate body temperature. Gabbeh rugs, hand-woven meticulously one by one by Iranian nomads using this naturally dyed wool, are characterized by their fluffy and pleasant feel. Well-woven Gabbeh are said to last for 100 years, boasting exceptional durability. Gabbeh, born from the dramatic temperature differences between day and night, also have the characteristic of being warm in winter and well-ventilated in summer, preventing heat. And above all, their artistry is remarkable. Gabbeh, created by the imagination of nomads, often feature designs of animals and plants, making each one a unique, one-of-a-kind original. They can be used not only on the floor but also displayed on walls as art. Why not find your own special Gabbeh that you can use for a long time?

Daily Care

Points to Note

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