On the Design:

Connoisseurs may admire this as one of the new curations of pieces in an interesting Persian Baluch design featuring an all-over geometric pattern—strongly resembling a prayer rug in its arches and the use of rich red tones (among many rich traditional colors at play). Baluch tribal carpets often favor large geometric motifs, diagonal stripes and fine border brocading in meticulous repetition with deep reds, earthy browns and whites, and this modern interpretation of Baluch rugs honors its essence in its intricate geometric patterns in similar hues. Admirers of the craft may appreciate this modern-day collectible and rich work of folk art alike, exploring bold themes in a fashion equally suitable to the floor and wall-hanging projects alike. less
