Hi,
I joined this forum hoping to ID several rugs I own. I have a number of books but seem to be stumped rather frequently.
I purchased this rug several months ago, thinking it was Belouch. Mostly based on the sidecord treatment. The motifs and design however, don't seem very Belouch, so I wonder if there is a better attribution.
Rug is about 38" X 81", including the rather long fringes. Condition is pretty good, although a bit dirty, and I do see a couple color bleeds.
Thanks for any help.
Bruce

Hi,
That would be Afghan but NOT necessarily Belouch?

It is Afghan Baluch and that was what KAD meant. Not of much commercial value.
