Belutsch Antique Afghan Rug – Handwoven Art with Soul

Afghan Belutsch Rugs (also called Balutsch or Baluch Rugs) are hand-knotted rugs traditionally made by Belutsch nomads and semi-nomads in western Afghanistan, eastern Iran, and parts of Pakistan. These rugs are among the most characteristic and at the same time underestimated pieces of oriental knotting art.

Origin and Culture
The Belutsch belong to an ethnic group that mainly lives in the border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Their rug art is closely linked to their nomadic life – the rugs serve not only as floor coverings but also as sleeping mats, saddle blankets, or tent coverings.

Belutsch Antik Afghan Teppich – Handgewebte Kunst mit Seele

Afghanische Belutsch-Teppiche (auch Balutsch oder Baluch-Teppiche genannt) sind handgeknüpfte Teppiche, die traditionell von Belutsch-Nomaden und Halbnomaden in Westafghanistan, Ostiran und Teilen Pakistans gefertigt werden. Diese Teppiche zählen zu den charakteristischsten und zugleich unterschätzten Stücken orientalischer Knüpfkunst.

Herkunft und Kultur
Die Belutsch gehören zu einer ethnischen Gruppe, die hauptsächlich in der Grenzregion zwischen Afghanistan, und Pakistan lebt. Ihre Teppichkunst ist eng mit ihrem Nomadenleben verknüpft – die Teppiche dienen nicht nur als Bodenbelag, sondern auch als Schlafunterlage, Satteldecken oder Zeltverkleidung.

Herkunftsland: Belutsch Antik Afghan
