Beluch Rug, Persia/Afghanistan, 20th Century

example of the nomadic textile art of the Beluchi tribes, traditionally woven on horizontal looms and known for its compact structure and high-quality wool. The design features a repeating pattern of octagons and interwoven geometric figures, often interpreted as "Guls," a hallmark of Central Asian tribal artistry. The warm, earthy tones dominated by dark brown and orange give the rug a subtle yet sophisticated look, while the ivory and blue details add depth and contrast. The border is adorned with stylized geometric motifs that elegantly frame the central field.
