About the Item

Discover a captivating piece of tribal history with this Early 20th Century Persian Kurdish Tribal Bagface, now beautifully presented as unique nomadic wall art. Woven by skilled Kurdish tribes in Persia, this authentic textile once served a vital utilitarian purpose, likely as the decorative face of a saddlebag or a side panel for a mafrash (a large tribal carrying bag). This exquisite bagface showcases a mesmerizing geometric pattern rendered in a rich and harmonious palette of deep burgundy, vibrant yellow, serene blue, and classic navy. The intricate interplay of these colors and forms is a hallmark of Kurdish weaving, reflecting the ingenuity and artistic sensibilities of its makers. These bagfaces and mafrash items, originally crafted for the practical needs of village and tribal life, now transcend their initial function. More than a century later, they bring a profound sense of beauty, authentic design, and rich cultural heritage as unique decorative items in contemporary homes. This Kurdish bagface is an ideal acquisition for discerning collectors, interior design professionals, and anyone seeking to infuse their space with genuine tribal art and a touch of nomadic charm.
