Haha. I missed the link further up - that’s a much nicer quality weave.

Got a new old rug yesterday. I think it looked great and the price was cheap so decided to go for it even though I don't have a place for it right now. I just love the deep rust red color of it. Usually these are much brighter red color I guess. I believe it is at least 20-40 years old but in great condition. It was sold to me and the previous owner as a Beluch rug but I believe this is a Afghan Kunduz rug. @Rug Doc what do you think it is?

Yes it’s a Kunduz rug, well done!
Baluch is misused... this is a proper Baluchi rug.

I have a baluch. I have owned it for many years. It was purchased from a respected London dealer who specialised in Afghan and from other near regions.
I have no doubt that the importer correctly described it as a 'Baluch'. He purchased it direct from the artisan source.
Mine was new when I purchased it. The main colour is the deep rust like yours.

My Baluch is similar ro yours. The main difference is that mine is more tribal - with deep grey fringes .
Yours is certianly a lovely rug.

For folks in the Edinburgh area, there is a shop in Ratcliffe Terrace( Edinburgh )that specialises in 2nd hand, hand knotted wool rugs, www.vintagewoolrugs.co.uk. Well worth a look if your local, lots of Persian & Turkish rugs on display.
Bit more nuanced than that isn't it ?
