A soft cream and ivory field sits at the centre of this rug, framed by a wide border of natural undyed brown wool. Both tones are the wool's own colour rather than dye — ivory from the pale fleece, soft brown from the darker — so the whole piece has the quiet, organic look of a true natural Gabbeh, with gentle horizontal striation running throughout.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from wool rich in lanolin, the pile is dense, soft underfoot, and naturally resistant to everyday wear. The neutral cream-and-brown palette is among the easiest of all to live with, and the subtle variation of the undyed wool marks it as a genuine one-of-a-kind piece.
