This antique Persian Gabbeh runner presents a beautifully understated design, defined by its expansive olive green field and narrow, finely detailed border. The simplicity of the central field allows the natural wool texture and subtle tonal variations to take center stage, creating a calm and organic visual presence.
The surrounding border features small geometric motifs in warm rust, ivory, and deep brown tones, adding just enough decorative contrast without disrupting the rug’s minimalist character. This balance between simplicity and detail is a signature trait of traditional Gabbeh weaving.
Hand knotted entirely from wool, including the foundation, this runner offers a soft, durable structure with a naturally resilient feel underfoot. The weaving technique emphasizes texture and authenticity, reflecting the nomadic roots of Gabbeh rugs while remaining versatile for modern interiors.
Ideal for hallways, corridors, or long transitional spaces, this runner brings warmth, texture, and quiet sophistication into the home. Its earthy palette and refined simplicity make it an excellent choice for interiors that value natural materials and timeless design.
