Baluch / 20279

This Baluch antique rug, 104 x 185 cm, presents a layered figurative composition in deep blue, purple, rust, and grounded neutral tones. The central field is structured with architectural and niche-like imagery, then enclosed by a slim border of repeating geometric motifs and finely drawn guard bands. Wool gives the surface a soft, tactile presence, and the low distress shows in gentle fading and age-softened contrast. Circa 1920 - 1940, it speaks to the distinctive visual language of Baluch weaving, where compressed pattern, restrained scale, and a weathered palette come together with clarity and depth.
