A hand-knotted Afghan Balouch wool rug, featuring a contemporary ‘War Rug’ design.

This central field is enclosed by a wide forest green border decorated with repeating red and cream floral-style motifs, framed by narrow geometric guard borders. The rug is constructed with a hand-knotted wool pile on a wool foundation, typical of tribal weaving from the region. Dimensions: Approx. 125 cm x 60 cm.
