About the Item
61233 Antique Nomadic Afghan Baluch Rug, 05'03 x 09'04. This enchanting hand-knotted wool antique Afghan Baluch rug is a captivating example of traditional Baluch craftsmanship, renowned for its vibrant designs and rich cultural heritage. The rug's bold use of color, particularly the deep reds and earthy tones, instantly draws the eye and invites closer inspection. The red field features three square-shaped medallions, meticulously woven with concentric diamonds patterned with S-hooks that seem to pulse with energy. Surrounding the central geometric design are smaller tribal symbols known as Bereket motifs, symbolizing fertility. Bereket symbols are created by combining the "hands on hips" (elibelinde) and ram's horn designs, which together represent a man and a woman. The fertility pattern features two elibelinde motifs signifying the female and two ram's horn motifs representing the male. At the center of each Bereket, the diamond Goz motif is placed to protect the family from the evil eye.
The inner geometric border of the rug are equally impressive, showcasing a series of repeating star guls that frame the central design and add depth to the overall piece. The outer hooked meander border, with it's rectilinear pattern and dark colors, serve to enhance the visual complexity of this woven wonder, making it a true work of art. The outermost border, with its hooked lattice-like design, provides a strong yet elegant frame that anchors the entire composition, while the inner borders play with color and form, adding layers of meaning and beauty. The detailed craftsmanship evident in these borders reflects the rich traditions and meticulous techniques passed down through generations of Baluch weavers.
The rug's palette, dominated by deep reds, earthy browns, and accents of blue, green, and beige, is both warm and inviting. These colors, derived from natural dyes, have aged beautifully over time, giving this antique Afghani Baluch rug a timeless quality that speaks to its history and longevity. The wool used in this rug is of exceptional quality, adding a soft, luxurious texture that is a delight to touch. The fine knotting, characteristic of antique Baluch rugs, ensures the rug's durability, making it not only a stunning decorative piece but also a practical one that can withstand the test of time.
This antique Afghan Baluch rug is more than just a floor covering; it is a piece of cultural history, a testament to the artistry and skill of the Baluch people. Its intricate designs and vibrant colors are a reflection of the weaver's deep connection to their heritage and environment. Whether displayed in a home office, cozy bedroom, or as a focal point in an entryway, this woven wonder brings with it a sense of warmth, tradition, and nomadic charm. It is a perfect choice for anyone looking to add a touch of history and artistry to their home, offering not just a glimpse into the past, but a piece of it to cherish for years to come.
Rendered in variegated shades of red, blue, green, beige, tan, purple, navy blue, saffron and black with other accent colors.
