FAQs

Baluch rugs are hand-knotted floor coverings traditionally woven by nomadic and semi-nomadic Baluchi tribes residing in the borderlands of Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, known for their deep dark palettes and geometric motifs.

Traditional Baluch rugs feature hand-spun wool pile woven onto wool or sometimes cotton warps and wefts, traditionally dyed using a combination of natural vegetable and insect-based dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit irregularities in weave and symmetry, saturated natural abrash colour variations, dark indigo and madder red primary tones, and wool foundations rather than synthetic alternatives.

An antique tribal rug adds texture and historical contrast when layered over neutral natural flooring or placed as a focal accent in minimalist or eclectic living spaces.

Antique wool rugs require gentle regular vacuuming without beater bars, professional specialist washing when necessary, and protection from direct sunlight to prevent dye fading.
