A soulful early 20th-century Baluch rug, softened by time yet still holding onto its tribal charm. The wear tells a story—countless steps taken over its handwoven surface, the passing of time etched into its fibers. This piece is for those who appreciate age as a badge of honor, a rug that has truly lived.
The design is a mesmerizing display of stylized tree or leaf motifs, an age-old symbol in Baluch weaving representing fertility, growth, and protection. These tree-like patterns, arranged in a rhythmic lattice, create a sense of movement—almost as if you’re looking at a dense forest or an endless field of growing plants.
The deep indigo and warm rust hues have mellowed beautifully over time, blending into a palette that feels both earthy and sophisticated. The border, with its scrolling vine-like design in soft ivory, frames the composition with balance, reinforcing the theme of nature’s endless cycle.
This rug may be worn, but it still has so much love to give. Whether layered for texture, used as a grounding accent in a space, or even displayed as a statement of wabi-sabi beauty, this Baluch piece carries the weight of history and old world charm. Thank you for checking this little beauty out!
A free rug pad will come along to keep this little treasure nice and snug.
