Baluch / 17685

This Baluch antique rug measures 6' 9" x 11' 10" and carries the grounded, timeworn presence that defines the type. A field of repeating stepped diamonds and angular tribal forms unfolds in layered red, brown, and gold, framed by a restrained border that keeps the composition focused and direct. The surface shows medium wear, with softened color and visible abrash that add depth rather than distraction. Circa 1900 - 1915, it feels both structured and weathered, with the quiet irregularity and saturated tone that make a Baluch rug so compelling.
