💧 Spills should be dabbed immediately with a damp cloth, never rubbed.
🚫 Do not use chemicals or harsh cleaners. Professional cleaning is recommended for stubborn stains.
☀️ Avoid direct sunlight to slow down the fading of natural colours.
📦 Storage should always be rolled, never folded. Store in a dry and ventilated place.

Questions & Answers
A Gabbeh is a thick, hand-knotted Persian rug knotted by nomadic tribes in the Fars region. Typical are a high pile, pared-back patterns and natural dyes, ideal for cosy, modern rooms.
Gabbeh rugs are made of high-quality wool and have a high pile. That is intentional: nomadic families originally used them as sleeping rugs.
Yes. They are extremely robust thanks to their dense wool and firm knotting. Perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, and high-traffic areas.
New Gabbehs may shed slightly at first, but this quickly reduces with use and regular vacuuming.
Many motifs, such as animals, trees or geometric shapes, tell of tribal stories, nature or everyday life. Pared-back designs are typical of modern Gabbeh.
Vacuum regularly. For stains, use cold water and mild soap. For deep cleaning, always choose a specialist for hand-knotted rugs.
Absolutely. Earthy colours, clear patterns, and soft texture harmonise perfectly with modern, Scandinavian, minimalist, and boho-inspired rooms.
Rizbaf rugs have extremely high knot counts and take months to years to produce. The finer the knotting, the more detailed the design, and the higher the value.
By extremely fine knots, clear patterns on the reverse, precise edges, and high-quality materials such as cork wool or silk.
Yes, but due to their artistic value, they are often used in living rooms, bedrooms, or less frequented areas.
Mostly cork wool and occasionally silk accents for maximum detail and sheen.
Rizbaf with natural dyes age beautifully. To protect the colours, avoid direct sun or rotate the rug occasionally.
