Full Description

This large Baluch bag is not very old, but extremely nice, with good natural colours and complete with its original back, tassels and sewed on decorations.
There are in fact white shells on one side and two military uniform buttons on the other one. Two more buttons are missing. It is a charming decorative piece suitable to be used as cushion.

JBOC's Notes:

This is a 20th century Mushwani Balisht. Boralevi's discription is very fair and the piece is an excellent example.
