Antique Timuri or Baluch main carpet of classic hooked medallion design.
 
Circa 1880.
 
A good example of a Timuri main carpet with the traditional Timuri hooked medallion design. The carpet probably originates from the area around Farah or Chakhansur, in Western Afghanistan near the borders with eastern Persia; and has some Taimani influence. The carpet is woven in shades of madder red, light and dark indigo blue, olive brown and ivory; the overall colour palette is warm and soft. The main border is of a repeat diamond design with very well drawn reciprocal rams horn inner and outer guards. Note the very long original kilim end finishes in bands of different colours.
 
The carpet is in good condition with some wear and medium pile, there are a few historic old repairs.
