Colorful and Tribal Vintage Shabby Chic Persian Gabbeh Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rug, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Using a powerful series of triangles and carefully chosen bright colors, this beautiful Persian rug showcases an elegant degree of presence that is a staple of some of the best and most artistic Persian Gabbeh rugs. The outer and inner borders of this shabby chic rug are defined by the careful arrangement of triangles, resulting in a number of zig-zagging and diamond patterns that complement each other, creating attractive movements that simultaneously ground the rest of the elements present throughout. Through the use of color combinations such as black and white and blue and red, the artist establishes necessary contrast that adds further definition and personality to the vintage rug as a whole. Between the various grounding elements, at the center of the masterpiece, three diamonds are arranged in a vertical formation, featuring two smaller diamonds on either side of their configuration. This combination creates an attractive degree of symmetry that adds to the piece’s versatile appeal.
