Woven by the nomadic Baluch tribe in the early 20th century, this delightful little rug is full of character and fun. It’s got that soft, floppy handle that makes it irresistibly touchable, thanks to the high quality, vegetable dyed wool. it also shows off two distinct weaving techniques, flatwoven ends framing a richly knotted field, blending texture in the best way.
The design is a playful mix of a small-scale motifs in a diagonal pattern with lovely pastel tones, giving it a cheerful, almost whimsical energy. And then there’s the border, a lively combination of tribal motifs with a charming “Pac-Man” style pattern that adds just the right amount of quirk.
Whether admired for its artistry or simply enjoyed for its cozy softness, this Baluch rug is a true handmade gem!
