Vintage Persian Gabbeh has contrasting colors of an apricot boarder and indigo center. The contrasting colors complement each other well. Traditionally a sleeping rug, a Gabbeh is a hand-woven pile rug of coarse quality and medium size ( 3 by 5 ft, or larger) characterized by an abstract design that relies upon open fields of color and a playfulness with geometry. Gabbeh patterns are of a very basic kind with only a limited number of decorative, mostly rectangular objects resembling mainly animals. In Gabbeh usually bright colors, such as yellow and red, are used. Although large fields of solid color are used in Gabbeh designs, the color is variegated (the color varies throughout the rug, with the appearance of different colored zones).
