Vintage Turkman Tobreh From Northeast of Iran
£600.00
This vintage Turkman Tobreh bag originates from Northeast Iran, reflecting the rich tribal weaving traditions of the Turkman people. Tobreh bags were traditionally used for storage and transport by nomadic tribes, often crafted with care and symbolic design elements.
The bag displays a deep, rich red ground—a signature of Turkman weaving—accentuated by large central Guls, traditional motifs that represent tribal identity and protection. These bold, geometric patterns are not only decorative but also deeply rooted in cultural heritage.
What truly sets this piece apart is the exceptional quality of the wool. Soft to the touch and featuring a natural sheen, the wool enhances the clarity of the design and offers a tactile richness rarely found in newer pieces.
Whether used as a decorative wall hanging, a collector’s textile, or even incorporated into a stylish interior, this Tobreh bag brings warmth, history, and authentic tribal character to any space.
