This handmade vintage tribal and geometric Persian Baluch runner has a striking modern geometric design and is in mint condition. It is known as a gallery size for its large width and the ratio of width to length. It can be used as a runner for large hallways or foyers, or also as an area rug in a narrow and long space such as in front of a bed or a couch.  This rug was hand-knotted by Baluchi tribal weavers using fine quality wool, a high knot count and expert craftsmanship.  This rug has a thick and supple pile that can withstand high traffic, is soft underfoot and will last generations.  The intricate small repeating geometric medallion design (known as 'guls' which often represent natural elements such as lakes or mountains) is hand-knotted on a bright red background in royal blue with parchment color accents in the rug's intricate design and the thin rows of tiny wave-like motifs that frame the border.  The colors are made from only natural and vegetable dyes. Size: 4'10"x9'9"
