Lot #39: Vintage Hand-Knotted Persian Baluch Tribal Pictorial Animal Rug

rare vintage hand-knotted Persian Baluch (Baluchi) tribal runner, featuring an exceptional pictorial animal panel design. Woven by nomadic Baluch weavers, this unique collectors' rug breaks from typical geometric medallions to showcase a horizontal ladder design filled with stylized tribal zoomorphic figures. The rows depict various animals including camels, birds, and stags rendered in classic geometric forms. The color palette relies on beautiful, naturally aged earth tones—terracotta rust, warm ochre yellow, deep espresso brown, and midnight indigo blue. The reverse close-ups demonstrate a highly flexible, tightly knotted wool foundation with authentic multi-banded tribal borders and clean, hand-wrapped selvedges. • Type/Origin: Persian Baluch (Baluchi) Pictorial / Zoomorphic Weave • Construction: 100% Hand-Knotted Wool on Wool Foundation • Approximate Dimensions: 37" W x 54" L • Colors: Terracotta Red, Ochre Yellow, Dark Brown, Indigo Blue, Cream • Design: Horizontal Pictorial Animal Panels with Intricate Geometric Borders Good condition, recently cleaned by professional rug cleaning company.
