This Baluch antique rug measures 2' 10" x 4' 7" and presents a restrained, graphic field of diagonal bands in brown, taupe, cream, and muted blue. The wool surface has a dry, tactile hand, with the pattern softened by age into a quietly layered composition. A narrow meander border encloses the field and keeps the design firmly structured, while the medium distress gives the piece a lived-in character without losing clarity. Circa 1900 - 1920, it carries the pared-back rhythm and earthy palette that define the Baluch tradition. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
