Gabbeh 161×91

Gabbeh means "raw" in Farsi and describes a simple, rustic carpet. Since the early 1990s, they have become increasingly popular as they offer a more relaxed, folk-inspired alternative to traditional Persian carpets. Gabbeh carpets are known for their thick, luxurious pile, a variety of colours and bold geometric patterns. The designs can be abstract or representational, often featuring motifs of animals or people. They are usually made of wool, occasionally cotton or other materials. Gabbehs vary in size from small mats to large rugs and can be used in any room of the house.
