Dusty Sapphire Tribal Mat 1’10” x 2’8” Circa 1970–1990

A beautifully woven Baluch tribal mat featuring three geometric guls floating in a soft, abrash-washed blue field. The border is a classic Baluchi stepped meander rendered in deep madder red, navy, and warm cream, framed by a mustard-gold rosette band that brings the whole palette to life.

Hand-knotted with wool on a wool foundation, this compact piece has the signature texture and rhythm of Baluch weaving: tight knots, earthy dyes, and bold graphic symmetry. Originally made as a utility mat for seating or personal ritual use, it now makes a striking accent for an entry, vanity, small landing, or layered vignette.
