Hand-Knotted Gabbeh Indian Rug, 240 × 170 cm, Wool

The piece in short

A Gabbeh from India, measuring 240 × 170 cm. That is roughly 4.08 m² of floor, about 7.9' × 5.6'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Materials and construction

The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. Construction method: hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 10 kg.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

On the knot count

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

How it reads

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.
