FAQs

A mafrash is a traditional rectangular storage bag used by nomadic tribes in the Caucasus and Northwest Persia, and panels are often preserved as flatweave fragments.

Soumak is a flatweaving technique that uses a wrap-faced weft-faced threading method, typically employing hand-spun wool dyed with natural pigments.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-spun wool with natural abrash colour variations, characteristic tribal geometric motifs, and structural wear consistent with age.

Such textile fragments are frequently mounted and framed as wall art or utilised as small decorative table accents to introduce texture and historical depth.

Preservation requires keeping textiles out of direct sunlight, avoiding excessive moisture, and gently vacuuming with a mesh screen covering for protection.
