FAQs

Baluch rugs are traditionally woven by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes inhabiting the borderlands of Iran and Afghanistan, typically characterised by dark, saturated colour palettes and geometric motifs.

Authentic pieces generally feature handspun wool pile knotted onto a wool or mixed wool and goat hair foundation, often utilising natural vegetable dyes.

Authentication relies on examining the weave density, irregularities characteristic of nomadic production, natural abrash in the dye lots, and specific traditional geometric iconography.

Such pieces function well as grounding elements in minimalist or eclectic spaces, adding texture, history, and warmth through their rich, earthy colouration.

Preservation requires gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional organic washing when necessary, and rotation to ensure even wear.
