Gabbeh Rug Brenda

The beautiful Gabbeh rug from Afghanistan was spun and knotted by hand with high-quality and best Afghan highland wool. The wool is undyed and radiates a pleasant warmth. The different wool colours create small lines that are woven into the rug. You can also lay this rug on floors with underfloor heating without hesitation. We recommend that you use a non-slip base. 

As our Gabbeh rugs are hand-knotted, it is possible that small wool threads may 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.
