Antique Spoon-bag, Afshar Nomads, Kerman Province, South Persia.

1900 - 1920
Description

This spoon-bag is woven in soumak technique on both sides and highlighted in ivory cotton. The bag would have been made circa 1900 by Afshar nomads in Kerman Province, southern Persia, with the sole purpose of containing wooden spoons.

It is in near-mint condition with its original warp-braided tassels and carrying strap decorated with tufts of coloured wool. The weave is exceptional and, as I've said many times, what incredible work went into making those fabulous utilitarian bags.

Size: 51cm x 24cm (1' 8" x 9").
