This vintage Baloch prayer rug is a distinctive piece characterized by its rich, earthy palette and traditional geometric motifs. The rug features a classic prayer niche design, with the upper portion forming a rectangular mihrab shape in deep grey tones, filled with repeating angular medallions in vibrant reds, oranges, and dark browns. Surrounding this niche is a patterned border decorated with small floral or star-like motifs in contrasting red and grey, adding depth and framing the central design beautifully. Handwoven with durable wool, this prayer rug exemplifies the intricate craftsmanship and cultural heritage of the Baloch weaving tradition, making it a meaningful and decorative artifact for both spiritual and aesthetic appreciation.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
