This Persian tribal Belouche rug dates from 1920. The hand-knotted wool piece displays a camel field covered in a repeated boteh pattern. Wide geometric borders in red and navy tones enclose the central field. The visible decoration includes intricate repeating motifs arranged in dense rows across the surface, bordered by multiple patterned bands. Signs of age appear in the gentle softening of the wool pile and the subtle variations within the red, cream, and navy colour palette. The rug measures 185 cm by 102 cm. Suitable for a gentleman's library or study, this traditional textile functions effectively as a floor covering positioned on hardwood floors or placed within a seating area to add warmth and texture to the interior space. The heavy wool construction provides a durable surface for daily foot traffic while introducing authentic period character to the room design.

Belouche rugs are traditional tribal textiles woven by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes in the border regions of eastern Iran and western Afghanistan, recognisable by their geometric patterns and deep colour tones.

These carpets are predominantly hand-knotted using hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the warp and weft foundation, often dyed with natural plant-based pigments.

Authentic examples feature soft wool pile, geometric or repeated boteh motifs, dark palette accents of crimson and navy, and hand-finished selvedges that exhibit slight artisanal irregularities.

Position the rug to ground living room seating arrangements, accent wooden floorboards in corridors, or create textural contrast alongside modern minimalist furnishings.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating brush, rotate periodically to balance light exposure and foot traffic, and treat spills immediately with cold water and clean cloth blotting.
