Mid-Century Modern Gabbeh Rug, circa 1940s

Mid-Century Modern Gabbeh Rug, circa 1940s.

2.80 x 1.40 m.

Gabbeh, a nomadic region in southern Persia, has been known for many generations for its high-quality, expressive tribal rugs. Early pieces were made for domestic use rather than commercial value in the marketplace. Gabbeh rugs have a cultural authenticity rendering them highly desirable to collectors.

This stylish c. 1940 Gabbeh rug has artistic influences of Mid-20th Century design. The simple monochrome drawing and use of natural, un-dyed wool in grey, caramel, ivory and cognac, is exquisite and unique in comparison to other examples of its type.

In excellent condition hand-woven with lustrous wool.

A sophisticated example with earthy colours to blend in a variety of interior styles.
