The blue field of this attractive old rug depicts a lattice of diamonds containing red and coral flower rosettes.
The soft coral main border is decorated with rectangular medallions with large central hooked rosettes.
The overall stylized floral design of this rug is believed to be an old Baluchi motif rarely seen in rugs today.
