3'8x6'3 ft Vintage Afghan Baluchi Hand Knotted Wool Rug Navy Blue Rust Gold Central Medallion Tribal Rug Living Room Bedroom

About this rug

This extraordinary vintage Afghan Baluchi rug is a rare and captivating example of bold central medallion design with rich tribal folk art detailing, hand-knotted by skilled artisans using 100% natural wool. Measuring 3'8x6'3 ft, this rug features a deep royal navy blue field dominated by a large elongated hexagonal central medallion in rich rust brown and olive gold — a striking and sophisticated composition deeply rooted in Afghan Baluchi tribal weaving tradition.
The central medallion is filled with an intricate maze-like geometric lattice pattern of angular hooked shapes and interlocking tribal symbols in rust, brown, and gold, centered around a bold cross star motif in vivid olive yellow. The open navy field surrounding the medallion is beautifully animated with charming folk art figurative elements including stylized camel and animal figures, decorative hanging lamp motifs, and large eight-pointed star rosettes in gold and rust — giving this rug a wonderfully lively and narrative quality.
The border carries a graceful repeating pattern of circular flower rosettes and small geometric accents in gold, burgundy, and ivory, while the bottom border features a lovely row of stylized floral and tulip motifs in white and gold against the dark field. The natural vintage patina adds tremendous depth and warmth to the rich navy and rust palette, making this an exceptional and highly collectible piece.
