On the Design:

Rooted in the time-honored aesthetics of Persian tribal weaving, this striking runner rug draws from the soulful artistry of Gabbeh tradition. With its bold geometric medallions set against a rhythmic, small-scale patterned field, the rug exudes a quiet strength. The design is further accentuated by a polychromatic palette—featuring red, burgundy, off-white, gold, blue, moss green, and orange tones—all artfully arranged to create subtle movement and depth within the structured geometry. The motifs along the borders speak in a language of ancestral symbolism, where each figure and color carries echoes of nomadic life and storytelling. Despite its tribal origins, this mid-century rug exhibits a sophisticated restraint that allows it to harmonize with both rustic and modern interiors.

Condition:

This vintage Gabbeh tribal runner enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It is a very collectible piece, ready for the floor. See less
