An old tribal bag woven by one of the Baluch tribal groups who inhabit the border regions between Iran and Afghanistan. Such pieces were used either for storage and transport of personal belongings, or stuffed to make cushions.
This is a nicely decorated example with interesting use of colors. It can be used as a floor rug, a wall hanging or as a cushion.
