Description: SHAHSAVAN (?) BAG
Origin: North West Persia, Kurdistan,
mid 19th c.
Size: ca. 65 x 71 cm
Estimate EUR: 6,000
Notes
Half of a khordjin in sumakh technique. The style of the
border zone is typically Kurdish (with regard to colours,
motifs, proportion) and well known from antique Bidjar
carpets; the same is true for the Minah Khani design of
the field. – Regardless of little moth damage, the
bag is in very good condition.
