Hand-Knotted Gabbeh Indian Rug, 295 × 250 cm

At a glance

A Gabbeh from India, measuring 295 × 250 cm. That is roughly 7.38 m² of floor, about 9.7' × 8.2'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Construction

Pile material is given as Handgesponnene Wolle, warp as wool. Construction method: hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 22 kg.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. At this size the rug defines the room rather than accenting it.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is under 200,000 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

Colour is recorded as Braun / Gelb. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.

Age

Stated condition: Neu.
