Description
English: Origin: Persian Jaf Kurdish Bag

Size: 2.9 x 3.11 Date: ca. Mid 19th c

The Jafs are a sub-tribe of the Kurdish and produce wonderfully distinctive diamond lattice pattern motifs on their rugs and bags. This bag-face has multiple rows of diamond motifs, each containing latch-hooks surrounding smaller crossed diamonds. The outer border is a single row of flowers. The whole piece is more colorful than most and is woven with exceptional wool.
Date mid-19th century
