I realize khorassan baluch have a distinct four cord selvage. However, I pwm a nice antique baluch rug with the four cords handled differently on each side. As the pictures show, one side had four separate wraps and the other has two cords twisted together and then wrapped. Therefore, the four cords are in two wrappings. From what I can see they are both original.

Is this the typical or am I missing something?
