Antique Baluch Tribal Rug, Ferdows Province, South-east Persia.

19th century
Description

Sold some 30 plus years ago from my Samarkand Galleries in Stow-on-the Wold, north Cotswolds, I have just been reunited with this unusual Ferdows Baluch rug along with two others.

This rug has a natural camel-hair ground on which 'lightening' patterns dominate the field and surrounded by a blue main border. The rug is in very good condition, dates to circa 1870 and is complete with long kilim skirts at each end.

Size: 1.30m x 0.84m (4' 3" x 2' 9").

FAQs

Baluch rugs are hand-woven textiles created by nomadic Baluch tribes inhabiting eastern Iran, southern Afghanistan, and western Pakistan. Characterised by deep colour palettes and geometric repeating patterns, these textiles reflect tribal weaving traditions passed down through generations.

Baluch rugs are predominantly hand-knotted using locally sourced hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the foundation. Dyes are historically derived from natural sources such as madder, indigo, walnut husks, and pomegranate rinds, producing dark, rich hues.

Authentic pieces usually feature dark, saturated tones including indigo blue, deep red, and dark brown, alongside intricate geometric motifs. They frequently exhibit flat-woven kilim selvedges or webbed ends at the fringes, and feel soft yet dense due to high-quality wool construction.

A Baluch rug can serve as a grounding focal point in contemporary or traditional spaces, adding texture and rich tone. Placing the rug on lighter hardwood or stone flooring highlights its intricate geometric patterns and deep indigo palette.

Vacuum the rug regularly using a suction-only setting to prevent damage to the wool fibres and fringe. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth, and periodically rotate the rug to ensure even wear and light exposure.
