Worn Distressed Antique Shabby Chic Persian Baluch Geometric Tribal Rug

Antique Baluch Persian Blue 1890s Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century piece exemplifies the robust, nomadic artistry characteristic of baluch rugs. Woven in the Khorasan region, this textile offers a powerful, densely patterned composition that speaks directly to the enduring traditions of Iranian / Persian rugs. The palette is dominated by deep, saturated indigo and madder, creating a striking contrast that has softened beautifully over time. The careful use of oxidized dark browns and subtle highlights of sky blue lends remarkable depth, making this an excellent example of highly desirable blue color rugs from the tribal repertoire. The design features a complex arrangement of stepped lozenges and stylized geometric medallions, tightly packed within a narrow, multi-banded border system.
