Persian Gabbeh Nomadic Rugs
Gabbeh rugs often have simple patterns and are not particularly detailed.
However, they are the most famous nomadic rugs in Iran. Gabbeh rugs are knotted by the nomads of the Ghashghai tribe in the Fars province of Iran.
The basic material is hand-spun wool, which is then dyed with natural colors obtained from plants and minerals.
They are relatively thick, up to 2.5 cm thick.
In Persian, Gabbeh means raw or natural. The perfect name for these nomadic rugs, whose design is limited to the essentials.
