Rug 97992

This is an Area Rug from Iran that embodies the heart of Tribal artistry in a simple and heartfelt expression. This is a Gabbeh, a rug that celebrates the beauty of pure material and honest design. Being a New rug, it has a rich, clean scent of natural lanolin from its high-quality Wool. It is a small but substantial piece, promising incredible texture underfoot.
The Rug’s Soul: Weave and Foundation Prepare for a wonderfully tactile experience. Kneel and press your hands into the rug; they will sink into a deep, dense, and luxurious High Pile. The Visual Texture is exceptionally Plush. This thick, comforting pile is the signature of the Gabbeh Artistic Lineage. The entire rug, from the pile you feel to its inner Foundation and the thick Wool fringe at its ends, is made of wool, a testament to its authentic tribal construction. The Weaving Tradition is the Persian knot (asymmetrical), but here the knots are tied with thicker strands of wool, resulting in a Low Knot Density. The goal is not precision, but a celebration of the wool and color itself.
The Rug’s Story: Design and Pattern The story of this rug is one of charming simplicity and delightful surprises. The Overall Pattern is Figural, but in the most minimalist way. There is No border and No medallion, creating a single, unbroken canvas.
Let your hands explore the vast, open landscape of the rug. The main field is a calm Beige, but not a flat, uniform color; it’s a natural shade with subtle variations of Tan woven in, giving it depth. As you explore this peaceful plain, your hands will discover scattered Pictorial elements. Here and there, you will feel the simple shapes of Animal figures, woven in a dark, earthy Brown. Their placement is Asymmetrical, giving the rug a spontaneous, playful feel. Alongside these animals, you will feel small, confident blocks of color: little squares and motifs of Red and Blue that sparkle like little gems in the earthy field. This Simple Pattern Complexity reflects the Symbolism of Everyday life in the weaver’s world.
The Rug’s Mood: Color and Texture The mood of this Gabbeh is earthy, warm, and deeply authentic. Its power comes from its clever use of a natural, terrestrial color palette. The colors are Vibrant but not harsh, a quality of the Natural vegetable Dyes. The Color Transitions are Abrupt; a block of red sits happily next to the beige field, creating a confident, graphic statement. This Unsigned piece from the Gabbeh Rugs brand is a work of folk art that finds its beauty not in complexity, but in the honesty of its materials and the cheerful harmony of its rich, natural colors.
