FAQs

A chanteh is a small, handknotted tribal bag face traditionally woven by nomadic confederations like the Qashqai in southwestern Persia to carry personal items or documents.

These pieces are typically crafted using handspun sheeps wool for both the pile and foundation, often employing natural dyes such as madder, indigo, and weld.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical knots, organic variations in natural dyes, handspun wool with characteristic irregularities, and traditional tribal geometric motifs.

They are frequently framed as textile art, displayed on small display stands, or used as accent pieces on a table or cabinet top to add texture and history.

Preservation requires keeping the textile out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, avoiding excessive moisture, and gently vacuuming with a mesh screen attachment.
