About the Item

Rare Antique Kurdish Saddle Bag (Middle East), Circa 1920s Acquire a piece of authentic nomadic history with this rare antique Kurdish saddle bag (Khorjin), hand-woven in the Middle East during the 1920s. This is an exceptional collectible piece that beautifully combines utility with vibrant tribal artistry. The piece consists of two distinct, long-pile woven panels, originally designed to form the faces of the saddle bag. The hand-knotted weaving is made from pure wool and displays a bold, highly saturated palette dominated by deep burgundy, fiery orange, black, and olive green. The traditional Kurdish motifs feature abstract geometric and stylized tribal elements. The woven panels are separated and finished with heavy black leather straps and borders, which not only provide structure but also add a rustic, striking visual contrast to the shaggy pile. This item is in Good Vintage Condition for its age, showing natural wear and patina that speak to its authenticity as a functional artifact.
