Baluch rugs are tribal weavings from the Baloch people of eastern Iran, primarily Khorasan and Sistan-Baluchestan provinces, as well as neighbouring regions in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Knotted with the asymmetrical (Persian) knot, traditionally on an all-wool foundation, they are immediately recognisable by their dark, rich palette of deep reds, indigo blues, and dark browns with ivory and orange accents.

Geometric tribal motifs, rows of small guls, diamonds, and angular rosettes, dominate the design language. Prayer rug layouts with the tree-of-life motif appear frequently. Typically small-format pieces, Baluch rugs are woven from the weavers' own flocks, sometimes incorporating goat hair and natural camel-hair fields.
