Carved Panel Rug

Gabbeh rugs originate from the nomadic weaving traditions of southwestern Iran, particularly among the Qashqai and Luri tribes. Traditionally known for their open compositions and expressive simplicity, Gabbeh designs focus on texture, color, and symbolic geometry. This contemporary wool rug interprets that heritage through a structured checkerboard layout of alternating panels. Some squares feature subtle horizontal texture, while others display softly carved floral medallions inspired by classical Persian ornament. The palette of charcoal grey, slate, and soft silver creates refined tonal contrast, while the raised carving adds depth and tactile dimension. The interplay between geometric structure and organic floral forms gives the rug a modern architectural character while echoing elements of traditional Persian design.
