About the Item

This hand knotted Persian Balouchi carpet belongs to Orley Shabahang’s World Market Collection, measuring 3’1” x 4’8”,. Utilizing a traditional Persian weaving technique, this carpet’s pile feels soft and plush while also providing durability and functionality. In shades of black, red, green, blue, and gold wool, this particular rug's design is unique due to its prominent central writing. Like traditional Balouchi carpets, flower and animal motifs can be found scattered throughout this carpet's field. What makes this piece distinctive is the addition of several tanks and vehicle motifs that surround a central medallion encapsulating calligraphy. The calligraphy in the center says “The World Map” in Farsi. This atypical Balouchi carpet is one of a kind and very collectible. Orley Shabahang takes pride in selecting and curating the finest vintage and antique carpets, ensuring that the preservation of this ancient art form will endure for generations to come.
