Persian Baluch Prayer Rug 3x4 – Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet
About this Baluch Rug This vintage 3' x 4' Persian Baluch prayer rug features a sharply defined mihrab design, framed by geometric borders and stylized botanical motifs. The bold symmetry, including the cypress-like trees and central flower, speaks to its function as a spiritual piece, while the earthy color palette grounds it in Baluch tribal tradition. Its compact size and fine detailing make it an excellent accent for smaller spaces or as a wall hanging. About Baluch Rugs Baluch rugs are typically woven by semi-nomadic Baluchi tribes along the eastern borders of Iran, often near Afghanistan and Pakistan. Known for their smaller formats and deep symbolic meaning, prayer rugs are a hallmark of Baluch weaving. These rugs frequently feature rich natural dyes, tight knotting, and tribal iconography such as trees of life, mihrabs, and animal figures. They are admired for their authenticity and understated sophistication, making them favorites among collectors and lovers of tribal décor
