    Collector's Notes

    This antique Baluch small rug was woven in the mid to late 19th Century and features a rare design with Turkmen style influences. Two siamese turreted gul medallions float on saturated purplish brown field. Stepped diamonds with abstract crosses fill center. A very old example of this type of weaving.
