This sublime antique Baloch rug is a masterful example of tribal weaving from the nomadic Baloch people of the Iran-Afghanistan border region. Rich in cultural heritage, the carpet features a deeply saturated colour palette dominated by dark browns, brick reds, and midnight blues, punctuated by ivory highlights that bring its intricate patterns to life.
The field is adorned with repeating gul motifs, traditional tribal emblems often associated with strength and identity, neatly aligned in rows that create a sense of rhythm and structure. Framed by a series of angular geometric borders, the rug reflects the weaver’s eye for balance, proportion, and symbolism.
Woven with hand-spun wool and natural dyes, this piece embodies the raw, earthy beauty and durability characteristic of antique Baloch rugs. Its compact scale and tribal authenticity make it ideal for collectors, connoisseurs, or anyone seeking to add depth, warmth, and narrative to their interior with a piece steeped in history.
Authentic vintage and antique Baloch rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature of these rugs, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.
Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your rug in place and smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. A rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.
