Description
A compelling group of four antique tribal bag faces, handwoven by nomadic artisans of the Persian / Afghan regions, originally part of functional saddlebags (khorjin) used in daily tribal life. Today, these surviving panels are highly sought-after as ethnographic textile fragments—valued equally by collectors and interior designers for their authenticity, graphic power, and sculptural presence. Each piece in this collection showcases distinct tribal identity and weaving tradition; 1. A Baluch/Turkmen-influenced panel with deep madder reds and classic gul motifs. 2. A South Persian (Afshar/Shiraz) geometric medallion example with rich tribal symbolism. 3. A Qashqai/Shiraz-style floral medallion panel, offering strong decorative crossover appeal. 4. A minimalist grid-format weaving, likely from a utilitarian bag or salt storage panel, prized for its modern, almost Bauhaus-like aesthetic Woven in hand-spun wool with natural dyes, these pieces exhibit the irregularities and character that define true nomadic work—subtle asymmetry, variation in knotting, and beautifully aged patina. Several retain flatwoven backs, confirming their original function as utilitarian tribal objects rather than later decorative reproductions. Clean and ready to be enjoyed.
