Persian Baluch

£575£675In stock, ready to ship

A striking, authentic Persian Baluch hand-knotted by tribal weavers in Khorasan, Eastern Iran — a region famed for deeply coloured, soulful rugs that carry centuries of nomadic tradition. This handsome long-format rug glows with rich burgundy and wine-red across its field, filled with a precise repeating pattern of diamond medallions — each one a miniature masterpiece of tribal design, picked out in golden ochre, ivory, deep indigo, and soft sage. Woven from wonderfully soft, rich wool, the pile has a beautifully dense, luxurious feel underfoot — plush and warm, yet incredibly hard-wearing. Set upon a strong cotton foundation, it lies flat and firm, built to withstand passage through hallways, entryways, or along living spaces. The multi-layer border bursts with tiny geometric and floral tribal motifs, framing the central field with intricate, unmistakable Baluch character from end to end. Generously sized at 203 × 104 cm, this is a superb runner — perfect for hallways, kitchens, or dining rooms, or laid lengthwise in a living area to anchor seating arrangements. The deep, warm palette brings instant richness and timeless, earthy style — pairing beautifully with wood, leather, and both traditional and rustic-modern interiors. A genuine tribal piece with quiet presence and enduring appeal.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 120 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 392,684 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 0 months.

How that is worked out: 80 in × 41 in × 120 knots per sq. in. ≈ 392,684 — that is 203 × 104 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
