FAQs

Feraghan saddle covers are traditional handwoven textiles originating from the Feraghan region in western Persia, crafted specifically to fit over equine saddles during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

These pieces typically feature hand-spun wool piles knotted onto cotton or wool foundations, utilizing natural vegetable dyes such as indigo and madder root.

Authentication relies on examining the density of the knotting, the natural patina of the wool, traditional Feraghan border motifs, and the characteristic slit or opening designed for the saddle pommel.

Antique saddle covers are frequently mounted as wall art in shadow boxes, displayed on tabletops, or used as accent pieces on small benches to introduce historic texture to contemporary spaces.

Preservation requires keeping the textile out of direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, vacuuming gently without a rotating brush, and ensuring regular inspection for insect activity.
