Coulours may appear different on the website than in reality. All mentioned prices and sizes are indicative and not binding. Possibly some rugs that are still online, are not available anymore in the showroom.
The Baluchi live mostly in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran. Although their patterns seem close to those used in Turcoman rugs, there is no direct kinship. Their roots and history were never clearly documented. Many tribes live in Khorasan and their identity has kind of merged with the local population.
Turcoman and Kurds use the Turkish knot, but Baluchi mainly use the Persian knot.
