Beautifully executed, having three borders surrounding a central column of stepped motifs enclosing three rosettes. A well-drawn hooked taratula pattern surrounds the central field of a buff ground and a fret pattern border separates the red from the buff. The bag also features looped hooks for attaching and the reverse is striped in the traditional fashion in a kelim weave.

This type of bag, also known as a torba, is traditionally used for storing personal possessions, but also sometimes as a cushion stuffed with feathers.

They are not normally made for export, but for domestic use that is the reason they are often carefully and beautifully made, and they can be very decorative. The front face is carpet and the reverse is usually Kilim.

These bags have a multitude of uses that could include using the piece as a cushion, a rug, a beautiful wall hanging or as a personal storage bag as the maker probably intended. A small price to pay for a very useable and versatile work of art.
