About the Item

A striking vintage Gabbeh rug measuring 2'10" x 3'10", woven by Qashqai tribes in southern Iran. This charming piece features a warm saffron-yellow field framing a bold red central panel dotted with simple animal and tree motifs in deep indigo, gold, and sky blue. Square accent blocks along the edges add a whimsical, almost modernist appeal. Gabbeh rugs are known for their thick pile, abstract composition, and playful tribal symbols—making them highly sought after for both contemporary and eclectic interiors. This rug’s small size is ideal for accent placement—by the bed, in a reading corner, or layered in a gallery wall-style room design.
