4745 · 4'2" x 9'9" Persian Baluch Area Rug

Pairs of rose red tree forms with comb tops stand on a dark plum ground in the middle of this lovely rug. At the center, pairs of rose red tree forms with comb tops stand on a dark plum ground, and the red against the plum gives the field a burgundy cast. Small teal and tan leaf panels fill each tree, and small animals stand at the roots. A chain of stepped diamonds in teal and pink runs between the pairs, so there is no single medallion. A wide border of rose red and near-black bands carries cream stepped crosses and small teal shapes. Narrow cream and brown stripes edge the field. The pile is low and close across the face. It brings a dark, graphic line to a narrow space, with the rose red trees standing out against the plum. At 4'2" by 9'9", it fits a hallway or the space along the side of a bed.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
