This exceptional vintage Kelat bag (also known as a Khorjin) originates from Kelat in Northeast Iran, a region renowned for its refined tribal weaving traditions. What sets this piece apart is its intact condition, which is increasingly rare for bags of this kind, especially those woven for utilitarian nomadic use.

The bag bursts with joyful, vibrant colours that are uncommon in this region, suggesting the weaver’s personal flair and skilled use of natural dyes. The composition is framed by a distinctive stylised flowerhead border, a decorative element that adds rhythm and charm to the design.

Crafted with fine handspun wool, the bag exhibits an excellent weave quality typical of Kelat textiles. Traditionally, these bags were used by nomads to carry supplies on pack animals, but today they serve beautifully as decorative wall hangings, tabletop accents, or collector’s textiles.

With its cultural richness, exceptional craftsmanship, and bright, harmonious palette, this vintage Kelat Khorjin is a standout addition to any tribal rug collection or eclectic interior.
