Large Size Gold Gabbeh Persian Oriental Area Rug 7x10 Handspun Wool
The Gabbeh is a very simple hand-woven tribal rug made by nomadic people in southern Iran and India. Its distinctive native style is especially suited to modern and eclectic interiors. The early weaver was given only the cotton for the base, along with dyed woolen yarn. He had no pattern, but looked at his surroundings and reproduced what he saw. Therefore every carpet is unique. This spontaneous style recently achieved much wider acceptance, and became very popular at home and abroad. Generally on a thick, heavy pile it combines large uncluttered fields with the occasional geometric human or animal silhouette. Sometimes there are over-all abstract patterns or bold stripes. Due to great demand for the Indo-Gabbeh, patterns were eventually made of the more popular designs. Once production was organized, specific colors, sizes and designs could be ordered. However, due to the variety in texture and quality of natural woolen yarn, with occasional gray fibers occurring, 'abrash' * ensures that no two rugs are identical. - Category: Home/Family - Home D?cor - Gabbeh Item: 456735911

Large Size Red Tabriz Persian Oriental Area Rug 7x10 Wool
Tabriz is an ancient city in north-western Iran, and the most prolific of all carpet centres. The quality in their carpets is generally exceptional, with most on a base of fine cotton, but sometimes on pure silk. There are many unique designs but typically the pattern in a Tabriz rug is filled with dense floral motifs, large palmettes, vases, or vivid hunting scenes or pictorials in the field. These can be with or without a medallion, and geometric designs are also seen. Tabriz has sub-styles as well. These include the restrained and elegant 'Mahi' in co-ordinated borders of subdued tones that fit in anywhere; the Naqsheh, with its plethora of pinks on beige, or very occasionally, black; and the wild but beautiful Tabatabaie, always in touches of orange, lemon green and beige. The finer Naqsheh and Mahi are mostly in highly-priced Kurk wool, and silk is often used to outline lavishly the highlights of the rug. - Category: Home/Family - Home D?cor - Tabriz Item: 460771193

Runner Sand Kashmar Persian Oriental Area Rug 8 ft. runner Handspun Wool
The Kashmar is a relatively rare carpet produced by master weavers in the province of Khorassan, in north-eastern Iran. The small city of Kashmar is very old, responsible for producing exquisite carpets for centuries. Kashmars are easily distinguishable because of their unique designs and their large size. The patterns are usually historic tableaux telling the story of a significant event in Persian history. Frequently there are views of the ancient ruins and sculpture of Persepolis, the kings Darius and Xerxes, and birds and animals from the Rubayat of Omar Khayam. There are also Kashmar carpets which resemble the classic Kashan, with central medallion and spandrels. - Home/Family - Home D?cor - Kashmar - 459160708

Medium Size Red-Burgundy Bakhtiari Persian Oriental Area Rug 5x10 Wool
Bakhtiari people are a noble, ancient tribe surviving in the Chahar Mahal region of south-central Iran. Primitive Bakhtiari rugs frequently have a checkerboard or garden pattern decorated with trees-of-life, birds, flowers and animals, sometimes realistic, sometimes abstract. Generally these are woven with a Turkish knot. But some very beautiful floral patterns are still produced in the principal town of Shahr Kurd with the Persian knot, showing long, exaggerated medallions reminiscent of an earlier Isfahan style. Color schemes include many shades of brown, rust, yellow ochre, bottle green, beige, dark blue and red. - Home/Family - Home D?cor - Bakhtiari - 456736498
