Gabbeh Indian Rug 198 × 144 cm, hand-knotted

The piece in short

This Gabbeh comes from India and measures 198 × 144 cm. It covers approximately 2.85 m², or 6.5' × 4.7'. Gabbeh rugs favour simple, open designs and a thick pile.

Materials and construction

It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as approx. 18 mm. Weight is given as ap. 8 kg.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as green / Oliv. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.

Age and condition

Stated condition: new.
