Early 20th Century N.E. Persian Baluch Carpet ( 3'8" x 6' - 112 x 183 cm)
Baluch
A name given to (mostly) pile rugs woven by Indo-European Tribal groups in Easter Iran (Khorossana nd Sistan Provinces) and Northwest Afghanistan (Herat Prov.). The true Baluch tribes of Baluchistan do not weave pile rugs of excellent wool, the sizes tend to be small, up to 5 x 7, with a few older large carpets. The tones are dark blues, camel, reds and purples with white accents. In older pieces the colors are jewel-like and the texture is velvety. The tribes dwell in black goat-hair tents and migrate seasonally. Saddlebags, pillows, animal trappings and other small items are woven. Camelfield player rugs are particularly characteristic and desirable. Most examples are inexpensive, but a serious collector market exists for the best.
