About the Item

This vintage 2x5 Persian Gabbeh runner rug is the latest entry to Rug & Kilim’s curation of rare tribal pieces. Hand-knotted in wool circa 1950-1960. On the Design: This captivating vintage Gabbeh rug features a bold, symmetrical composition that places two majestic lions face-to-face at its center, their fierce expressions and dramatic postures capturing a moment of raw energy and confrontation. Rendered in rich golden ochre with voluminous, dark brown manes, the lions are set against a muted olive green field that adds depth and earthiness to the composition. Their muscular forms are highlighted with bold outlines and minimal detailing. The field is encased within a deep red border adorned with traditional geometric motifs that lend a folkloric charm to the piece. Altogether, this piece is an embodiment of tribal storytelling ideal for collectors, design aficionados, or anyone looking to make a statement in their interior with a piece that is as storied as it is visually arresting. Condition: This vintage Gabbeh runner rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It is a very collectible piece, ready for the floor.
