FAQs

A Baluch bird bag is a traditional handwoven tribal textile crafted by Baluch nomads across eastern Iran and Afghanistan, originally created as a utilitarian transport container decorated with stylised avian symbols.

These textiles are predominantly hand-knotted or flatwoven using hand-spun wool dyed with natural plant extracts, yielding dark indigo blues, madder reds, and walnut shades.

Authentic Baluch pieces feature a dark, saturated colour palette, asymmetric knotting, dark selvages, and distinct geometric or zoomorphic motifs such as repeat bird figures.

A Baluch bag face can be mounted as framed wall art, converted into a decorative floor cushion, or layered over furniture to add historic texture and rich indigo tones.

Keep the textile away from direct sunlight to prevent fibre degradation, vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, and consult a professional textile conservator for cleaning.
