Late 19th-century Persian Baluch tribal soumak double saddlebag. The front of the bag showcases a captivating geometric design in brown hues against a yellow backdrop. The intricate variations in the green/blue pattern enhance its beauty. Additionally, the Baluch saddlebags feature a flatwoven kilim in rich brown and rust red tones.
Referred to as "khorjin" in Persian Dari, this complete saddlebag comprises two interconnected bags. Renowned for their exquisite colors and designs, these bags are crafted using fine wool for both the pile and foundation, along with organic vegetable dyes. Originally utilized by tribes to transport household items during seasonal migrations, these saddlebags hold historical significance. less
