This authentic antique Persian tribal saddlebag (khorjin) showcases exceptional traditional craftsmanship, featuring hand-knotted pile panels adorned with classic geometric diamond motifs, intricate latch-hook borders, and a rich palette of deep crimson, indigo, terracotta, and cream. Designed for utilitarian transport, the two carpeted faces are connected by a flat-weave striped bridge (kilim) with slit-closure loops and original woven ties, while the flat-weave back panels display bold earth-toned striping. The piece retains its original structure, offering a captivating blend of nomadic textile art and functional historic heritage that makes it ideal for display, framing, or collector appreciation.
