Open Camel Saddlebag. Bathiyari. Persia. Circa 1920. 230 X 105 Cm
Superb double camel saddlebag from Persia, attributed to the nomadic Bathiyari people. Importantly, it is not a patchwork, or at least not pieces sewn together. The object is woven, embroidered, and knotted on a single warp. This type of piece is quite rare, and this one is in a near-miraculous state of preservation. The plant-based dyes are in perfect harmony. The indigo blues are exquisite. It has a beautiful patina. The whole is captivating for an everyday object that was once used for transporting goods. A true work of art and a prized collector's item. Wool on wool. Perfect condition. Circa 1920. Dimensions: 230 x 105 cm. Laurent Beauty of Kilims
