Description

Vintage Afghan Baluch Tribal Area Rug, meticulously hand-knotted in the mid-1900s. Woven by the nomadic Baluch tribes of Afghanistan in the mid 1900s.

This beautiful rug boasts a highly desirable "near square size", a particularly sought-after dimension for tribal weavings, offering versatile placement options. It features a striking geometric design rendered in a rich and harmonious palette of classic red and warm brown colors, creating a visually engaging and timeless aesthetic.

A unique and highly appealing characteristic of this rug is the soumak kilim weaving technique incorporated into its design. This flat-woven technique, skillfully integrated within the pile, adds textural richness and intricate detail, enhancing the rug's beauty and providing a fascinating contrast.

This Afghan Baluch tribal rug is a testament to authentic nomadic craftsmanship. Its natural dyes and hand-spun wool create subtle variations in tone and texture, adding profound depth and authenticity that only enhances its vintage charm.
