Size: 6 x 3.5 ft. Origin: Balochistan Circa: 1930s Material: Pure Wool This antique tribal Baloch wool rug is a richly expressive piece woven by nomadic artisans from the Baloch tribes of eastern Persia or western Afghanistan. Featuring a dark, moody palette of deep indigo, crimson, and ivory, the rug displays a classic repeating lattice of floral rosettes and stylised geometric forms arranged in diamond medallions. The intricate details and symbolic motifs reflect both spiritual meaning and cultural heritage. Framed by bold borders filled with angular flower heads, vines, and finely drawn motifs, the rug maintains a strong tribal energy and balance. The dense, handspun wool pile and natural dyes give it a soft, earthy texture and a rich, organic feel. This Baloch rug stands as a testament to the weaver’s tradition, intimate, utilitarian, and steeped in centuries-old storytelling through its intricate patterns. Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a grippy rug pad to keep your rug in place and smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug. 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 cleaned.
