Wandering Nomad on Chimera Ground, runner 1 is a rectangular wool rug.‎ Zollanvari Super Fine Gabbeh quality.‎A whimsical narrative unfolds across these Super Fine Gabbeh runners, where ancient nomadic motifs meet a modern, minimalist silhouette.‎ The design features a rhythmic procession of ‘Wandering Camels’ and sentinel-like trees, set against either a structured, Rothko-esque Chimera ground or a vibrant, tonal field.‎ These pieces represent a ‘Transitional’ bridge—capturing the timeless spirit of the desert trek with a clean, geometric simplicity.‎ Whether used to anchor a hallway or define a gallery space, they offer a charming yet sophisticated story of movement and heritage.‎A Gabbeh is a hand-woven pile rug characterized by an abstract design that relies upon open fields of colour and playful geometry.‎ Gabbehs are woven by tribal women and are principally used as ‘bedding blankets’ by the nomadic tribes of the Zagros Mountains of Iran, including Kurdish, Luri and Ghashgha’i people.‎ Gabbehs are quintessentially Zollanvari and geometric designs are quintessential Gabbeh designs.‎ Our Gabbehs come in different qualities.‎ Our finest Gabbeh weave is Zollanvari Super Fine quality (referred to as Kashkuli after one of the Ghashgha’i tribes living in Fars province, southeast and northwest of Shiraz).‎ Our Zollanvari Fine qualities (known as Amaleh after another Ghashgha’i tribe who produced high-quality artefacts for the Khans) are more coarsely knotted, but truly unique and individual in patterns and colour combinations.‎
