About the Item

This antique saddlebag with Soumak and Bakhtiari carpet weaves circa 1890 exhibits a colorful display of classic tribal geometric designs.

This carpet consists of pure handspun wool and organic vegetable dyes. The size is 4' x 8', and it is in good antique condition. Orley Shabahang takes pride in selecting and curating the finest vintage and antique carpets, ensuring that the preservation of this ancient art form will endure for generations to come.
