Gabbeh Persian Rug 208 × 106 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

Overview

A Gabbeh from Iran, measuring 208 × 106 cm. The covered area is about 2.2 m² (6.8' × 3.5'). Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Construction

Stated material: new wool.

Format and use

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

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

How it reads

It is catalogued under Weiß / beige. Depending on the light and the direction you look from, the surface reads lighter or darker — a property of every handmade rug.
