A khorgeen is a traditional double-sided saddlebag handwoven by nomadic and tribal peoples in Persia, historically used for transporting personal belongings and household goods during seasonal migrations.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed using handspun wool for both the pile and foundation, often employing slit-tapestry kilim weaving or warp-faced techniques with natural vegetable dyes.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the irregularity of handspun wool, the natural variations in vegetable-dyed colours, structural wear consistent with nomadic use, and traditional tribal motifs unique to specific regions like the Qashgai confederation.

These versatile textiles can be framed as wall art, mounted on specialty stands, or repurposed as decorative cushion covers to introduce texture and historical depth into modern spaces.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming with a mesh screen covering, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, and consulting a professional textile conservator for periodic cleaning.
