In the ancient era, Baluchi rugs gained fame for their skillfully woven textures and exquisite motifs depicting the Tree of Life. These rugs were easily identifiable due to their exceptional wool quality and carefully selected colour combinations. Predominantly adorned with rich hues of red, brown, blue, purple, and ivory, they were further accentuated by the use of black outlines and shading to enhance the inherent beauty of the colours.
The creative Baluchi tribes have inspired a wide range of motifs through their imagination and by building upon existing patterns. These include the revered symbol of the Tree of Life, captivating geometric designs that repeat throughout, exquisite medallion patterns featuring diamond latch hooks, and numerous others.
The rugs showcased a unique and captivating allover pattern, boasting a mesmerising repetition of diverse geometric motifs. These distinct designs encompassed the Tree of Life, diamond latch hook, medallion patterns, and other enchanting motifs. This remarkable feature enhances the allure and charm of these rugs, elevating their overall appeal and desirability.
Traditionally, these rugs feature sombre colours such as deep brown mahogany, rich blue, warm camel, elegant ivory, and deep purple. However, more recent designs have incorporated red’s vibrant and captivating hue.
Baluchi oriental rugs are meticulously woven on simple horizontal looms, a necessity for nomadic communities. Consequently, these rugs tend to be smaller, with most measuring no larger than 4×6. Moreover, a considerable number of square rugs are also meticulously crafted.
Like other nomadic communities, the Baluchi people are adept at crafting a diverse array of multi-purpose items. These encompass a broad spectrum, ranging from intricately woven rugs to exquisite saddlebags, cushion covers, saddle covers, horse blankets, and ground covers for meals. They even skillfully fashion blinders for donkeys, horses, and camels. The craftsmanship and adaptability demonstrated in their creations are truly awe-inspiring.
Baluchi rugs showcase a diverse spectrum of quality, with the most exceptional ones frequently hailing from Iran’s Khorasan province.
