Discover the Natural Beauty of Gabbeh Rugs

Artisanal charm, rich color, and cultural heritage are woven into every piece.

Gabbeh rugs are known for their simplicity, warmth, and character, qualities that have earned them a special place in both traditional and modern interiors. Handwoven by the nomadic Qashqai people of southwestern Iran, these rugs were originally created for personal use, providing comfort and insulation in mountain climates. Today, their thick wool pile, vibrant dyes, and handcrafted charm make Gabbeh rugs a beloved choice for homes around the world.

Unlike other traditional rugs known for intricate designs, Gabbeh rugs are defined by their bold colors, minimal patterns, and plush texture. Each rug tells a quiet story, often using geometric shapes, stripes, or abstract motifs as a nod to the weaver’s environment or imagination. With a lower knot count and thick, handspun wool, Gabbeh rugs are soft underfoot, durable, and inviting, ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, or cozy reading nooks.

The wool used in Gabbeh rugs is locally sourced and known for its resilience, natural sheen, and ability to resist stains and soil. Dyes are traditionally derived from plants and minerals, producing earthy tones like gold, rust, indigo, and brown. In more recent years, artisans have expanded into brighter or more neutral palettes, offering options for every aesthetic, from bohemian warmth to modern minimalism.

Gabbeh rugs are typically woven on small, portable looms, a reflection of the nomadic lifestyle of their creators. This process gives each rug a slightly irregular quality, adding to its authenticity and charm. Because of their thick pile and relatively quick production time, Gabbeh rugs were not only used as decorative floor coverings but also as mattresses and blankets, functional pieces of art designed for everyday life.

At Rug Source, we carry a wide selection of Gabbeh rugs in a range of sizes, shapes, and styles. Whether you need a small rug for an entryway or a large area rug to anchor your living space, you’ll find handmade options to suit your needs. Our inventory includes rectangular, square, round, and runner formats, each one reflecting the natural variations of the loom and the artist behind it.

Gabbeh rugs are not only visually distinctive but also surprisingly accessible. While antique Gabbehs can carry a higher price tag, our collection includes both traditional and modern pieces at a variety of price points, making it easy to find a rug that matches your style and your budget.
