Wool Gabbeh Indian Rug 200 × 75 cm, hand-knotted

Overview

Hand-knotted in India: a Gabbeh of 200 × 75 cm. It covers approximately 1.5 m², or 6.6' × 2.5'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Construction

Pile material is given as wool, warp as cotton. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Weight is given as ap.6kg.

Where it fits

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

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.

Colour and appearance

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

Condition

Stated age: contemporary, 0–20 years old. Being recent, the pile shows little wear and holds its full height.
