Vintage Baloch Rug 4'5" x 2'8"

Size 4.5 X 2.8 Ft

ORIGIN: BALOCHISTAN

CIRCA: 1960s

MATERIAL: PURE WOOL

This vintage Baloch wool rug features a traditional prayer niche design with tribal symbolism rendered in a muted, earthy palette of terracotta, taupe, and faded rust. The upper field displays stylised architectural elements reminiscent of minarets, domes, and arched doorways, while a pointed mihrab marks the lower field, guiding the direction of prayer.

The rug’s composition is finely detailed, with intricate lattice and tree motifs flanking the central axis, reflecting fertility and spiritual abundance. The border is framed with repeating geometric rosettes in deep ochre and walnut tones, creating a bold contrast against the faded central field. The wool pile is low and softly worn, offering a timeworn charm that enhances its authentic tribal character, a soulful and decorative piece rooted in the spiritual and nomadic heritage of the Baloch people.
