About the Item

Hand knotted Gabbeh rug, crafted in Iran circa 1990. This expressive tribal Gabbeh features a striking red field dominated by a bold yellow lion motif, rendered in the playful, abstract style characteristic of traditional Gabbeh weaving. The simplified lines, symbolic markings and charming proportions of the lion give the rug a warm, imaginative presence, while subtle navy and ivory details add definition and visual interest. The composition reflects the spontaneity and artistic freedom of nomadic Iranian craftsmanship. Woven from high quality wool on a wool foundation, the rug has a dense, soft texture with a natural sheen. The rich vegetal tones of red and yellow create an inviting palette that can serve as a vibrant focal point in both modern and traditional interiors. Size: 4.8 × 3.4 ft (146 × 105 cm), a versatile small format ideal for entryways, study corners or accent spaces. In excellent condition. A distinctive example of late 20th century Gabbeh weaving, combining folk artistry with enduring charm.
