Antique Rug by the Quchan Kurds, Baluch Salar Khani Design, Circa 1900.

1900 - 1920
Description

Size: 6ft 11in x 4ft 0in (210 x 123cm).

Antique Quchan Kurd rug with Baluch Salar Khani style gul design.

Circa 1900.

This is a good example of a group of rugs woven by the Quchan Kurds of Eastern Persia. The rug design is very similar to that of the Salar Khani Baluch although the colour palette and weave is clearly Kordi. The weave is coarser with longer soft pile than you would find in Baluch weaving, giving the rug a very floppy handle. The two rows of guls stand out against the rich madder red ground. The border design is interesting being a linked bird head design.

The rug is in excellent condition with slight wear and good pile, note the original short kilims at both ends.

The rug is suitable for normal domestic use.

Stock number: D-0603.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Quchan Kurdish rugs originate from the North Khorasan region of Iran, woven by settled Kurdish communities influenced by Baluch tribal designs. The Salar Khani layout typically features geometric octagonal guls, latch-hook diamond motifs, and a rich palette dominated by deep red, navy, and ivory wool.

These rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the warp/weft foundation. Saturated tones are achieved using natural plant and mineral dyes, including madder root for reds, indigo for blues, and walnut husks for dark brown accents.

Authentic period examples exhibit abrash, which is natural dye variation across the field, alongside flexible, thick wool foundations. The presence of hand-overcast selvages, minor geometric irregularities in the repeating guls, and flat-woven kilim end bands confirm tribal hand-weaving.

A dark, geometrically patterned rug provides a grounding foundation in minimalist, contemporary, or industrial settings. Positioning saturated crimson and dark blue textiles alongside neutral upholstery or natural oak furniture creates visual balance and depth.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only nozzle without a rotating brush bar to avoid damaging the wool fibres. Address liquid spills immediately by blotting with an un-dyed cloth, and arrange professional hand-washing by a textile specialist every few years.
