Minimalist Folklore — 3.4 × 4.9 Gabbeh Rug from Persia
This charming 3.4′ × 4.9′ Gabbeh rug from Persia exemplifies the quiet beauty of tribal minimalism. Woven in a creamy ivory field, it features a delightfully scattered pattern of stylized flowers and tree-of-life motifs, arranged in neat horizontal rows. Each motif is executed in muted tones of indigo, rust, soft brown, and slate blue, giving the rug a whimsical, folk-art quality. A navy border filled with rosettes and a subtle terracotta inner frame tie the piece together with grounded elegance.
Its playful yet calm aesthetic makes it perfect for casual, airy interiors — whether as a bedside accent, in a reading nook, or a sunny corner of a minimalist home.
