Here is a beautiful old Mushwani Belouch Balisht. Measureing 19" wide and 36" long the balisht is in excelent condition. a "Balisht" is a pillow made with a pile front face and a kelim back which is folded up and bound (usally in goat hair) along the sides. Most of these came to the market during hard times and the backs were cut off to make them into small rugs. a shame really as these were usually pirzed dowery pieces. Mushwani Belouch are known for weaveings with long silky wool and deeply saturated colors. This piece is exactly that, with several shades of red, natural black, a rich green (very charistic of these rugs) along with highlights of white all on soft natural camel hair background. This is very finely woven and has a soft rich handle. The "Tree Of Life" pattern seen here is a rare design for these weavers.
