What were nomadic khorjin bags used for?

Nomadic families loaded these double pouches onto pack animals to transport grain, salt, bedding, and personal possessions during seasonal migrations between summer and winter pastures. Inside the tent, they functioned as upright storage containers that kept essential household goods organised and protected from damp ground.

How do I care for a tribal bag face?

Protect antique wool textiles from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent natural dyes from fading over time. Gentle vacuuming with a low suction attachment without a rotating brush helps remove embedded dust. Professional textile conservators should handle any necessary washing or structural repairs to preserve the integrity of the hand-spun wool foundation.

Can I use these bags as floor cushions?

Complete bags with sturdy original backs or padded bag faces function well as decorative floor cushions or decorative pillows in low-traffic areas. The historical wool pile withstands normal gentle use when placed on soft surfaces. Avoid positioning fragile flatweaves or pieces with delicate shell embellishments where they will experience heavy daily friction.
