Afghan Balochi War Rug

Baluchi war rugs represent a unique and poignant chapter in Afghan and tribal weaving history, emerging during the decades of conflict in Afghanistan beginning in the 1980s. This exceptional Baluchi war rug features a striking triple mihrab (prayer niche) composition on an ivory field, with three ornate prayer niches arranged vertically down the center. Each mihrab is rendered in coral-red and rust tones with traditional architectural detailing, creating a devotional structure that maintains spiritual significance despite the conflict context.
