A rhythm of mountain peaks and lightning strikes dances across this hand-knotted Baluch tribal rug, anchored by diamond medallions nested in jagged, energetic waves. Woven with wool dyed in richly saturated reds, soft greens, and dark plum against a camel-toned field, this piece is both grounded and electric. A fine example of nomadic artistry from the Baluch tradition, its balanced palette and soft handle make it quietly magnetic.
