Baluchi Prayer Rug. Mid-20th Century. 125 X 85 Cm

This prayer rug is a rarity.
What makes it unique? It has no dyes—just soft colors derived from natural, undyed wool!

Having seen hundreds of Baluchi prayer rugs—which tend to be rather traditional and, ultimately, quite ordinary—this one truly stands out from the crowd.
In this composition, this sacred rug offers an unexpected dimension: nature and the fibers create harmony all on their own.
It can be placed on the floor, of course, or used as a bedside rug, but it’s also ideal for hanging on the wall given its picture-like format and directional design.
The architectural form of the mihrab serves as the main decorative element.

Traditionally woven and knotted using wool-on-wool technique.
The quality of the wool is remarkable—it’s very soft.
The piece is perfectly balanced—you can’t fake that.

The piece dates from the mid-20th century.
Excellent condition

Dimensions: 125 x 85 cm
