This vintage 3x5 Gabbeh Persian rug is from the latest entries in Rug & Kilim’s rare tribal curations. Hand-knotted in wool circa 1950-1960.
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 mid-century design enjoys animal pictorial patterns, and emphasis on rich brown, abrashed gray and fine black detailing in its distinguished style. The field medallion is particularly arresting, and resembles a lion of bold, graphic charm in its geometric form. Keen eyes will further admire the matching depictions in the border, uncommon for this provenance and lending a charm like that of folk art to this collectible.
An exemplar of classic charm and culture as much as handmade rugs, with versatile size and vast design applications.
Further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. less
