Description
Baluch Prayer Rug (fragmented), Afghanistan. Missing the outer borders on either side (but with complete top and bottom ends), the reciprocity of design with the salmon red ground color may be viewed by some as the primary design alternating from an ashik form to a diamond shape. The use of camel wool confined to the secondary/minor border – yet another reciprocal pattern contrasted with aubergine – is uncommon. 29" x 53" (73cm x 132cm) Asymmetric knot open left, 7h x 9v = 63 kpsi. Colors (7): light salmon red, aubergine, dark blue, camel wool, natural grey, corrosive grey/black, natural ivory/white. Published: Plate 10. Cole, T. FROM THE LAND OF THE SUN. THE RICHARD STEWART COLLECTION OF BALUCH RUGS, BAGS, AND TRAPPINGS. 2022.
