Description

This beautiful pair of small saddle-bags - 'khorjin' in Persian - are charming in every way.
The weave is very fine, intricate warp-float technique and each panel or pouch contains an 'eye' for warding off evil in knotted pile.
The bags, which are in mint condition, were made by Qashqa'i - Darrehshuri nomads circa 1900 and are illustrated in my book 'Tribal Rugs - Treasures of the Black Tent' page 184.
Size: 56cm x 35cm (1' 10" x 1' 2").
Viewing by appointment only.
Internal Ref: BM1975
