The term abrash, from the Arabic word for mottled, is typically used to denote colour changes or variations running horizontally across the face of a rug. These colour changes will appear within the same colour for example, a light blue field may have a flash of darker blue running through.

 

Abrash can also refer to a more general variation of colour throughout a certain field of colour causing the area to have a mottled appearance.

 

Abrash results from differences in the dyeing process. Before the rug is made, small quantities of skeins of pile of yarn are dyed by hand. Each dye lot is hand knotted into the rug, but some colour variation is inevitable when another dye is next used. Connoisseurs of antique and semi-antique oriental rugs value the beauty and handmade appearance that is typical of abrash.

 

Our Contemporary Abrash Collection celebrates the Abrash effect with a modern twist.
