Gabbeh Persian Rug 175 × 92 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

About this rug

Origin Iran, format 175 × 92 cm — a Gabbeh made entirely by hand. That is roughly 1.61 m² of floor, about 5.7' × 3'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Construction

Stated material: new wool.

Format and use

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

Fineness of the knotting

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.

How it reads

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