This handmade tribal and geometric Persian Baluch accent rug or small runner is known as a "Finest Baluch" because it was hand-knotted by Baluchi tribal weavers using fine quality wool which gives it a sheen in the light, along with a high knot count and expert craftsmanship.  The soft sturdy pile can withstand high traffic and will last generations.  This intricate allover geometric design is bursting with color and pattern.  Its striking repeating medallions are known as "guls", which represent natural elements such as lakes or mountains. The rug is hand-knotted on a strawberry red backdrop, with its central patterns black with yellow and white accents.  What makes this rug really stand out is its border with a bright royal blue ribbon of color that fades into silver halfway around the rug. This is called abrash, the variation in wools and dyes that occurs in handmade rugs made with natural dyes, which is true for all the colors in this rug.  This "irregularity" is part of what gives the rug its handmade charm and great price.  Size: 2'10"x5'9"
