Baluch

Description

second half 19th century, 196 x 108 cm, North East Persia, Khorasan, Torbat-e Haydari

The steel blue field is covered in a diamond lattice design that encloses large star-shaped blossoms. The wide red main border comprises a spaciously conceived vine bearing blossoms and floral stems, drawn in the angular style of Baluch rugs. An example that compares well has been attributed to the Baizidi by Boucher. Outstanding quality.
