Shahsavan Panel

19th century
Description

This weft wrapped panel is from a mafrash or bedding bag. The range and tone of the colours indicates good age and I place it in the late 19th Century because of this. The quality of Shahsavan weaving is to be admired and these little panels demonstrate the best of their work. An allover pattern is always attractive and the random placement of the coloured diamonds is also pleasing. The might be a piece for the collector who has no more room for rugs if such a thing is possible.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Shahsavan textiles are woven items produced by the Shahsavan nomadic pastoralist confederation of northwestern Iran and the southern Caucasus, celebrated for their complex extra-weft soumak wrapping and geometric decorative patterns.

These textiles are woven primarily from hand-spun wool on narrow looms, utilizing natural plant dyes and extra-weft brocading or soumak techniques to create dense, textured geometric motifs.

Authentic pieces feature hand-spun wool yarns, distinct colour variations known as abrash, structural floating threads on the reverse side from soumak weaving, and recurring motifs such as diamond lattices and latch-hook medallions.

A Shahsavan panel can be custom framed as graphic wall art, draped over a console or bench top, or re-purposed into a decorative scatter cushion to introduce colour and historic pattern into modern spaces.

Keep textiles away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, vacuum gently using low suction without a beater bar, and consult a professional textile conservator for specialized cleaning.
