About the Item

Hand-knotted in wool circa 1910-1920, this 2x4 textile runner is an antique saddle bag—a collectible textile once used by nomadic tribes in their daily life—an exceptional new acquisition in Rug & Kilim's distinguished collection of Central Asian nomadic masterworks. On the Design: This archaic piece of art brims with old-world charm and has a construction that is especially formidable among flatweaves. Keen eyes will note the play of rich pink, red, green, blue, black and beige-brown tones underscoring primitivist motifs. It’s a collectible piece of history and folk art alike, full of rustic charm and old world beauty. Connoisseurs may further admire the liveliness that its color variations lend the geometric patterns—an intriguing departure from traditional bag kilims of its period. A beautifully aged piece, it hosts a fine play of rustic geometric patterns in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and offers vast design applications. Condition: This antique Saddle Bag runner and textile enjoys good condition for its age and origin with some mild wear consistent with age. It is a very collectible piece, well suited to wall-hanging tapestry projects and other decorative purposes.
