The Artsy Rugs Lori Gabbeh has a much shorter pile than traditional gabbehs and depicts geometric human or animal patterns or stripes. It boasts incredibly lustrous soft wool and cultural authenticity, which makes them highly desirable to designers and collectors. These unique tribal rugs are exciting with their rich and jewel tone colors and made with 100% handspun wool and natural dyes on a cotton foundation.
