A chanteh is a small, traditionally handwoven utility bag made by nomadic and tribal peoples in Persia, used for carrying personal items or documents, with surviving bag faces often displayed as flat textile art.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted or woven using hand-spun village wool for the pile and foundation, dyed with natural vegetable colorants such as madder and indigo.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of hand-spun wool, natural dye variations across the abrash, structural knot density, and traditional tribal iconography.

They are frequently mounted and framed as wall art to preserve the integrity of the textile while adding texture, heritage, and rich colour palettes to contemporary spaces.

Preservation requires avoiding direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, keeping them away from high humidity, and gently vacuuming with low suction using a mesh screen cover.
