Gabbeh rugs from Iran and India are known for their simplicity and rusticity. The term "Gabbeh" means "raw" in Farsi and describes their uncomplicated style. Since the early 1990s, they have enjoyed growing popularity as a relaxed alternative to traditional Persian rugs, which are often associated with formal interior design. Gabbehs have a thick, luxurious pile, a variety of colours and feature cool geometric and animal motifs, often abstract or representational. They are usually made of wool on wool and vary in size from small mats to large rugs, suitable for any room in the house.
