The Gabbeh style rug is hand knotted by Turkoman tribes in the province of AQCHAE of Northern Afghanistan using 100% natural un-dyed hand spun wool on a cotton warp. The natural wool used creates a unique semi plain pattern, meaning the colours can vary from light to dark natural, grey and cream shades due to the variances in the natural wool. The rugs are then transported over to Pakistan where they are expertly finished including washing and trimming.
