The piece in short

A Gabbeh from Iran, measuring 143 × 106 cm. It covers approximately 1.52 m², or 4.7' × 3.5'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Format and use

The format suits the space in front of a sofa, a small dining table, or a study.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.
