Vintage Baluch Wool Rug | Handwoven Afghan Tribal Carpet (5.1 x 3.1 ft)

🌟 Welcome to Ruglux PK – Home of Heritage Textiles That Tell a Story 🌟
Thank you for visiting our store. At Ruglux PK, every rug is more than décor—it's a cultural artifact. This piece, like many others in our collection, holds a story passed from one generation to the next, handwoven with meaning and care.

This striking Afghan tribal rug showcases twin geometric urn motifs, symbolizing abundance, fertility, and ceremonial life in tribal design language. These bold red medallions sit upon a rich navy-blue field and are surrounded by traditional tribal border elements, including stylized floral forms, X-shaped totems, and protective amulet patterns.

Handwoven by skilled artisans from the Baluch or Turkmen regions of Western Afghanistan, this rug exemplifies the bold symmetry, symbolic complexity, and deep natural dyes typical of highland tribal weaving traditions.

🧵 Craftsmanship & Design
Woven on a vertical loom using 100% hand-spun wool, this rug is crafted with the asymmetrical Persian knot technique. The yarn is naturally dyed with pomegranate rinds, madder root, indigo, and walnut husks. The intricate design—known as naqsha—is memorized, not drawn, and can take up to 4–6 months to complete for a rug of this size (5.1 x 3.1 ft).
