Iran Gabbeh Rug Unique Campsite

This unique rug is an original hand-knotted nomadic rug from southern Iran. The rugs of the nomads tell stories and experiences from their lives, as does this unique piece. A campsite under the open sky can be seen. The nomads have pitched their tents here and the animals graze on the meadow. The nomad woman lovingly hand-knotted the rug, knot by knot. The colours of the rug are natural colours, extracted from flowers, plants and roots. The hand-spun Zagros wool used to knot this beautiful one-of-a-kind piece is incredibly hard-wearing and particularly hard-wearing due to its high residual fat content.

Our direct import price means that you buy our rugs between 25 - 35% cheaper than traditional retail, because we select and buy the rugs directly on site in the country of origin. This also means that there is no intermediate trade between us and the manufacturer. We pass this price advantage on to our customers in full.

As our nomadic rugs are hand-knotted, it may be that small wool threads push upwards at the beginning. This is not a material defect, but the testimony of a genuine, hand-knotted rug. The threads can easily be cut off with scissors. We recommend using a hoover with a flat nozzle. This is more gentle on the handmade rug. As this rug is a purely natural product, stains can generally be removed very easily and without complications. Simply wash the stain out with neutral soap and water. Under no circumstances should you use chemical cleaning agents, as the rug is made of pure natural materials and the wool will then be attacked. If you have more persistant stains or you want to give the rug a thorough cleaning after some time, then the hand-knotted rugs can be washed. We offer this rug washing service for our rugs. We also recommend the use of a non-slip underlay to protect your floor and the rug and prevent you from slipping on the rug.
