This khordjin is the traditional design that we see in Mashwani khordjin and is very rare otherwise. The essential differece is that the pile front is one piece with pile on the bridge. This piece reminds me very much of the one that George O'Bannon showed me in his living room in Tucson years ago. One thing that I thought was missing was the green but it is more visable in the detail shots.

Late 19th century Baluch, Mushwani ? , khorjin. Mostly in good condition, complete. A couple of old noticable tribal repairs. Pile is overall good condition, silky and full. Great saturated colors, dark but wonderful. Full kilim, flatwoven, back is intact, again with a couple of old tribal repairs. $650.
