Baluchi blog
Those who have visited us at West End Co. would have seen our selection of tribal rugs and especially some of our stunning Baluchi/Belouch/Beloch pieces. I thought I would write a little about these rug without getting too technical or wordy.
These rugs are often knotted in very deep reds and blues, with splashes of colours such as orange, white, green, and yellow. Typically woven by two major weaving groups, The Taimani and The Baluch tribes from Iran. Our selection at West End Co. are mostly Taimani.
Another typical characteristic of these rugs is the use of soft wool with tightly knotted pile. Being a nomadic rug, they are usually portable and quite small.
We always keep a good selection of these rugs for around $199. They make a perfect gift and always a talking point. Daniel from West End Co. is always more than happy to tell you a little about the history or story behind the rug you purchase.
