AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A rare and fascinating example of an Afghan war rug of Baluchi tribal craftsmanship. This lot represents a perfect example of the 'art of resistance,' in which traditional nomadic weavers have integrated the surrounding dramatic wartime reality into the classic designs.
