A most attractive early rug of the Baluch nomads of Khorassan, north-east Persia, made circa 1870. The overall condition is very good apart from a 23cm (9") old re-weave in the centre-right, which can be seen in the close-up images. Although not that obvious when viewing the rug, this re-weave can be removed and expertly re-done at a reasonable cost, if required. The brown dye has mordant corrosion, which is expected in most Baluch rugs and weavings of this age.
Nevertheless, this is a very handsome and collectable rug.
Size: 1.70m x 1.14m (5' 7" x 3' 9").
