Hand knotted in wool, this 6×9 Baluch rug represents a new line of tribal rugs in the Modern Classics Collection. Each piece represents the work of women weavers in Afghanistan, preserving the rich tradition of their centuries-old craft. On the Design: Admirers of the craft may appreciate design elements inherent to the Mashwani tribe in this piece. Mashwani Baluch rugs are often recognized for remarkably tight knotting and delicious, saturated colors like those at play here. This piece enjoys rich red, navy blue and brown, with hints of white. It’s a comfortable, personal piece, exemplary of primitivist, old-world patterns and the devoted tribal weavers who recapture their beauty.
