A Gabbeh rug is a rustic, hand-knotted Persian tribal rug known for its thick, plush wool, simple geometric or abstract designs (like animals, trees, and stripes), and vibrant natural dyes, reflecting the nomadic weavers' intuitive artistry and creating a durable, warm, and characterful floor covering. The word "Gabbeh" means "raw" or "uncut" in Persian, referencing its coarse texture and bold, unrefined charm, often with large blocks of color and playful motifs.
