Maffrash Shasaven. Persia. Circa 1880. 164 X 103 Cm
Originally, Maffrash were the largest carrying bags used by the nomadic peoples of Persia and the Caucasus.
Incidentally, they served as baby carriages once the camp was set up.
Woven wool on wool.
The weaving is a true marvel—it has it all: extreme finesse, precision, and consistency.
The piece is light and supple.
Extremely fine and refined workmanship.
The colors are very soft and natural. The field has beautiful depth, making a myriad of stars shimmer.
The piece is over a century old, yet it looks so modern. One might describe it as graphic or even design-oriented.
Late 19th century.
Perfect condition.
Dimensions: 164 x 103 cm
