Antique Salt-bag, Shahsevan Tribes of Varamin, North-central Persia.

1900 - 1920
Description

This charming namakdan (salt-bag) was woven by Shahsevan nomads in the environs of Varamin in north-central Persia circa 1900. It is completely original with braided handle and neck tassels and incorpoates beautiful natural shades of sky and mid blues, soft orange and some green. I suspect the purple-pink colour used as highlighting and obvious in the two neck tassels, is an early synthetic dye by the name of fuchsine, which was used sparingly as a bright new colour, from 1870 through until 1900.

Size: 38 cm (1' 3") square.
