Description from the seller
-- Rare and antique Beluch with a distinctive design in 100% wool
-- Professionally cleaned*
-- approx. 200,000 knots per m²
-- With Certificate
*Before entering our warehouse, cleaned at a laundry specializing in hand-knotted carpets, then not used since.
This is a hand-knotted Oriental rug, made from durable, natural materials. The knotting technique and the diversity of patterns make this rug unique and emphasize its authentic and artisanal character.
Antique Beluch hand-knotted circa 1960. A rare size: Beluch rugs are often small. This beautiful Beluch features a "Jaf" motif. A Jaf motif is a diamond-shaped pattern that originally appears mainly in the weavings and bags of the Kurdish Jaf tribe. It usually consists of linked, stepped diamonds with small hooks or protrusions along the edges.
In an antique Beluch rug, a “Jaf motif” does not usually mean the rug was woven by the Jaf tribe, but that the rug has a pattern reminiscent of the well-known Jaf diamond motif. Motifs were regularly borrowed and adapted between neighboring tribes and trading areas.
Main color: Purple
Details: Each rug has a lighter and a darker side (wing).
Grown from 100% natural materials. Hand-knotted from 100% wool, circa 1960. Distinctive design with a beautiful color palette.
Usage marks: Some fringe & edge damage, in line with its age.
Condition: Good condition with some signs of aging.
