Rug MpB 002
Listing Details
The coulours of this rug are excellent and extraordinary glossy. Here you can find the for Baluch highly demanded variation of blue and aubergine colour.
I didn’t found a name for the main Gül from this rug, what is for me astonishing as it is not seldom to find. I like the archaic layout of this Gül, containing a tree of life with a double roe of leaves. Bottom of the Gül looks for me bit like “roots” as the stripes I interprete as “beams”.
The brown colored main field is filled with four big Baluch Güls, which are well known in main carpet from “Baluchs” or “Timuri” made in Afghanistan region. The main field is surrounded from a small Tengedschik border, alternating coloured in white and aubergine.
Also on a brown coloured base lie the “Oak Leave – Wine Glass” as main border. Only some “glasses” are knotted, so one can interpret the border also as variation of Ovadan Gyra. Right and left from main border is knotted a small blue and aubergine vine border stripe and as secondary border.
Both ends are made from extra broad plane weave stripes in the basis coulours of this rug. A goat hair wrapped Shirasi with one thick cord built the sides of this rug. All colours are natural.
Condition of this rug is perfect, brown coloured wool is, as usual in Baluch rugs in that age, oxidized.
