This is a very unusual pictorial Mashad Baluch Rug which shows the mythological folkloric Persian Winged Bull which is carved in stone at Persepolis (Gate of all Nations) in Persia.
This Persian Rug measures approx 65cm wide by 86cm long.
Baluch are traditional rugs and typically have geometric motifs occasionally having fine detailed kilim ends - generally these rugs tend to be woven in small and medium sizes only, with the rare exception of bigger pieces.
Normally wool pile on wool warps and wefts using good quality wool, these classic rugs are finely woven and mostly have rich reds, terracottas, creams, chocolates and burnt orange colour ways.
These Baluchi rugs are semi antique pieces ie around 30 to 40 years of age, have lots of charm and character and are in excellent condition unless otherwise stated.
