Antique Storage-bag, Qashqa'i Tribes, Fars Province, South-west Persia.

19th century

Sold by Brian MacDonald Antique Rugs & Carpets

Description

I've always believed that some of the very best of tribal weaving went into dowry bags and here we see an example of the very best of Qashqa'i soumak weaving. The work is exceptional and I can only assume the weaver was one of the very best within that tribe. She was Qashqa'i - possibly belonging to the Kashkuli tireh (sub-tribe) - and this amazing bag was made during the last quarter of the 19th century, possibly as a dowry piece and rarely used from its near-pristine condition. Also, take a look at the plain-weave back with its beautiful shade of madder-red, highlighted with yellow arrow-heads all the way round. Truly fabulous and highly collectible.

Size: 79cm x 73cm (2' 7" x 2' 5").
