Vintage Afghan Ersari Room Size Rug in Geometric Gul Pattern in Camel Hair, Navy

Discover the understated elegance and authentic spirit of nomadic artistry with this Early 20th Century Vintage Baluch Tribal Area Rug, handwoven circa the early 1900s. This captivating piece showcases a sophisticated allover geometric pattern set against a rich field of dark red, complemented by harmonious tones of dark navy blue and warm caramel. Hailing from the Baluch tribes residing in the southeast corner of Persia and western Afghanistan, this rug exemplifies their renowned weaving traditions, often characterized by the masterful use of dark red, rust red, or various shades of brown as primary colors in their hand-woven rugs, saddlebags, and salt bags. This particular Baluch area rug features an intricate allover design consisting of refined geometric forms in dark red, deep navy blue, and camel hair. The main field is subtly yet powerfully framed by four different, meticulously detailed borders, creating a layered complexity that makes this a remarkably subtle tribal rug. Adding to its unique beauty, the ends of the rug feature a delicate Kilim weave, a testament to the weaver's skill and attention to detail. Woven with extremely high-quality wool, the rug possesses a luxurious, soft texture and a distinct shimmer under light, making it a truly exceptional piece of textile art.
