Description

Gabbeh is a traditional type of Iranian rug handwoven by nomadic tribes. The word “gabbeh” translates to “coarse” or “rough,” which aptly describes their thick and textured pile. These rugs are typically made from wool or cotton yarns and are known for their simple yet distinctive designs. Gabbehs often feature geometric patterns, floral motifs, animals, and occasionally intricate designs. They are appreciated as cultural and artistic symbols of Iranian tribal heritage. Gabbeh rugs are commonly used in rural settings as well as decorative pieces in both modern and traditional spaces.
