Description

Here we have a rarity!
This unusual prayer-rug with a natural, undyed camel-hair field and a myriad of small '8-pointed' stars, was made by Baluch tribes close to the Turkmen border of north-western Afghanistan, around the mid 19th century.
The whole drawing is quite unique and certainly archaic and very much a collector's piece.
In overall good condition with areas of slight wear.
Size: 1.30 x 0.97m (4' 3" x 3' 2")
Viewing by appointment only.
Internal Ref: BM/BC2
