Antique Baluch Rug
#2444 Baluch Rug
3’-2” x 5’-7”
AGE & ORIGIN:
4th Q. 19th C.
Persia
OVERVIEW:
Baluch rugs in general are known for their more somber palettes, and while this is no different, especially within the borders, the field, being of undyed camel hair, is a nice exception to the general rule. The field, even outside of the camel, is exceptional, including the use of Turkic motifs and the rare aubergine accent color. This particular design has the market name ‘Salor Khani’ taken most likely from the Turkic ‘Salor’ group although this rug’s actual connection to that group is most likely tenuous, and the design most likely only borrowed from the particular ‘guls’ used by the Salor group.
CONDITION:
Areas of wear and one re-woven area
