Additional Features

• Hand-knotted in wool circa 1950-1960, this 1x3 gift-sized antique tribal textile originates from Pakistan and represents a charming example of nomadic utilitarian weaving, likely part of a saddlebag construction. Such pieces were historically used by tribal communities in daily life, making this a collectible work of both folk art and functional design.
• Admirers of the craft will appreciate this piece for its intimate scale and expressive tribal geometry, hallmarks of nomadic weaving traditions. The design is anchored by geometric patterns, each enclosing stylized motifs that evoke symbolic forms, often interpreted as protective emblems or representations of life and continuity.
• The composition is divided into panels, suggesting its original function as part of a saddlebag, with each side carrying a mirrored yet slightly varied interpretation of the central motif. This subtle asymmetry lends the piece a sense of authenticity and handcrafted individuality that collectors value in tribal textiles.
