4x6 Amaleh Gabbeh in Red and Orange Shades
This Vibrant Red and Amber Rustic Gabbeh Will Warm Any Space Up.
Really fun Tribal style Amaleh Gabbeh in a wonderful gradient of reds, oranges, and amber tones. Small tree symbols are arranged in rows across the piece. One thing that is fascinating about even these simple toned Gabbehs is the striking jewel tone red is derived from dyes sourced from the root of the madder plant. These plants must mature for 5 to 7 years prior to being harvested to be used in dye production.

Very versitile sized and durable Gabbeh
Gabbeh rugs are a type of rug with origins in the nomadic world of Persian herders. Prized for their uniqueness and quality as working textiles, each Gabbeh is a one of a kind glimpse into a world unto itself. We have the finest selection of Gabbeh rugs in the Pacific Northwest.
Great little Amaleh Gabbeh in a very versitile size. Like many other Amaleh produced rugs, the emphasis is more on subtle gradations of similar colors versus the more collage type Gabbehs produced by Kashkuli members of the greater Qashqaii people. The wool is hand-spun and this makes it a more durable fiber due to the practice of mechanically spun wool to require the stripping of natural oils to aid in the rapid processing. This makes a rug very resilient to staining and wear and also makes them respond to cleaning exceptionally well. The dyes used in these rugs are produced using the same methods practiced since time immemorial using plants indigenous to the semi-nomadic weavers migration routes. Here, a very colorfast red dye is produced using the roots of the madder plant once it has matured for a minimum of 7 years.
