Zollanvari STRIPES 53 Rectangular wool rug

Stripes 53 is a rectangular wool rug.‎ Zollanvari Super Fine Gabbeh quality.‎ Stripes are archetypal Gabbeh patterns and one of the bastion designs in Zollanvari’s Gabbehs Geometric Collection.‎ The combination of bands of colours merging in perfect harmony using varying degrees of abrash have a calmative effect that brings a modernist simplicity and enduring elegance to any interior.‎ A Gabbeh is a hand-woven pile rug characterized by an abstract design that relies upon open fields of colour and playful geometry.‎ Gabbehs are woven by tribal women and are principally used as ‘bedding blankets’ by the nomadic tribes of the Zagros Mountains of Iran, including Kurdish, Luri and Ghashgha’i people.‎ Gabbehs are quintessentially Zollanvari and geometric designs are quintessential Gabbeh designs.‎ Our Gabbehs come in different qualities.‎ Our finest Gabbeh weave is Zollanvari Super Fine quality (referred to as Kashkuli after one of the Ghashgha’i tribes living in Fars province, southeast and northwest of Shiraz).‎ Our Zollanvari Fine qualities (known as Amaleh after another Ghashgha’i tribe who produced high-quality artefacts for the Khans) are more coarsely knotted, but truly unique and individual in patterns and colour combinations.‎ Further info from manufacturer on STRIPES 53 Zollanvari
