FAQs

A Qashqai saddle bag cushion is crafted from the handwoven face of a traditional khorjin, a double saddlebag originally woven by nomadic Qashqai tribes in southwest Iran for transporting goods.

These cushions feature hand-knotted wool pile woven onto a wool foundation, coloured using natural dyes derived from plants and minerals to produce deep reds, blues, and cream hues.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-knotted wool pile with subtle variations in pattern alignment, natural dye shading known as abrash, and a dense, heavy texture characteristic of traditional loom weaving.

A tribal carpet cushion adds texture and pattern when placed on neutral leather sofas, minimalist linen armchairs, or layered alongside plain velvet soft furnishings.

Vacuum gently on a low setting without a rotating brush bar, spot-clean liquid spills immediately using cold water and mild neutral detergent, and arrange professional specialist dry cleaning when required.
