Gabbeh Indian Rug 180 × 128 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Gabbeh comes from India and measures 180 × 128 cm. That is roughly 2.3 m² of floor, about 5.9' × 4.2'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Construction

Construction: Handgesponnene Wolle in the pile over a wool foundation. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap. 5 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is under 200,000 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

On the colourway

The stated colourway is Braun / Gelb. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.

Condition

Stated condition: Neu.
