Traditionally, Gabbeh rugs produced Pre 1980 were made with dense pile and entirely with wool. These designs & quality were crude with small animal motifs and simple geometric adornment of plain colors.

Post 1980’s era, Modern Gabbeh rugs employ Lustrous Hand-Spun wool with combinations of dyes from natural substances, creating an irresistible look and feel. Weavers improvise, and the design elements varies according to the taste of individual weavers.

Premium Rugs however have elevated Gabbey rugs to a higher level by introducing intricate nomadic landscape designs & other natural themes with finer knotting than is traditional.

It’s my long journey sourcing finest hand spun yarn from the mountainous region of Baldistan (Northern region of Pakistan) & then engaging skilled tribal weavers from places like Hunza Valley, Kalash Valley & Swat.

Our refined Gabbeh’s are renascent to the Luri tribes of Persia, and include much saturated vegetal-dyed colors. The entire collection can be viewed at Premium Rugs in standard sizes. Custom-size orders are also accepted, offered at most competitive prices.
