1'3 x 2 Persian Gabbeh Poshti Rug

This 1'3" x 2' Persian Gabbeh Poshti rug, also known as a "baby rug," is a handcrafted Persian piece made from a cotton foundation and thick wool pile. Traditionally, these Poshti rugs were woven as samples to represent how larger Gabbeh rugs would look and feel, gaining significant value as handmade Persian rugs became rarer in the market. Gabbeh rugs are known for their dense pile, simple geometric patterns, and tribal, nomadic motifs.

The central field of the rug features a striking deep olive-green panel bordered by geometric red diamond shapes, set against rich golden yellow panels. Each side of the field displays charming stylized animal motifs, typical of Gabbeh's tribal roots. These hand-woven figures, symbolic of nomadic life, bring a playful character to the rug. The vibrant yellow, red, green, and black colors provide contrast and balance, while the thick wool pile offers warmth and durability, making this rug ideal for high-traffic areas or cozy decorative accents.

Gabbeh rugs are celebrated for their simplicity, durability, and cultural heritage, offering a piece of Persian nomadic history to your space. Whether used as a unique accent in a living room, hallway, or entryway, this Poshti rug combines heritage, artistry, and practicality, bringing a vibrant piece of Persian craftsmanship to your home.
