On the Design:

This tribal provenance is one of the most primitive, and collectible shabby-chic styles in handmade nomadic rugs. Exceptional Gabbehs like this are known for thick, lush pile, rich colors and bold geometric patterns. This particular design enjoys pictorial patterns, and emphasis on brown, off-white and blue in its distinguished, yet playful style. Keen-eyed connoisseurs will admire deer and rabbit depictions in the field, uncommon for this provenance and lending a charm like that of folk art to this collectible.

An exemplar of classic charm and folk art as much as handmade rugs, with versatile size and vast design applications. Further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. less
