a superb antique Arab namakdan or salt bag woven with the soumak technique from Iran. All the dyes are natural, with a particularly beautiful indigo blue. The lower corners are probably worn, so at one point, the owner of the bag decided to protect them with a leather piece. The back of this beautiful salt back is woven in kilim and left plain, except for the “neck”, which is decorated with a lot of detail in the soumak technique like the front part. a lovely piece for a collection. https://www.nomada.biz/en/producto/antique-arabic-salt-bag-or-namakdan-f...
