Gabbeh, banded field

Price on request

242 × 178 cm · 7′11″ × 5′10″

Gabbehs are the most painterly of Persian weavings: coarse knots, deep pile, and colour laid down in broad, breathing bands. This example moves from camel through madder to a quiet green, like a landscape reduced to its registers.

Underfoot it is the most comfortable thing we sell.

Each piece is one of one, acquired personally on your behalf. Online acquisitions open with the release of our inaugural collection; enquiries are welcomed now. Fully insured delivery within the United Kingdom and Europe.
