About this Persian Baluch Rug

This compact 1.8 x 2 ft Persian Baluch rug features a dramatic geometric design with a richly saturated burgundy field, vibrant blue elements, and an ivory-accented border. The bold central spine with angular offshoots creates a tree-like motif often interpreted as a stylized life symbol in Baluchi weaving. Four double-hooked medallions, symmetrically placed on either side, lend a powerful tribal rhythm to the composition. Framed by a lively diamond-and-hook border, this piece makes a dynamic statement for a small space—perfect as an entry mat, wall accent, or decorative layer in a rustic or maximalist interior.

About Baluch Rugs

Baluch rugs are handwoven by semi-nomadic tribes along the borders of eastern Iran and western Afghanistan. Known for their compact size and deeply saturated natural dyes, these rugs often carry symbolic motifs rooted in tribal tradition. Their wool tends to be soft yet durable, and the designs frequently feature stylized flora, geometric medallions, and protective emblems. Typically woven on portable looms, each Baluch rug embodies the individual spirit of the weaver and reflects a long-standing heritage of independence and resilience.
