About this Shahsavan Tribal Khorjin
This antique Persian Shahsavan double saddlebag, measuring 1'7" x 3'7", is a rare example of nomadic tribal weaving from the early 20th century or earlier. Woven entirely in wool, each bag features tightly knotted faces adorned with a repeated hooked diamond motif, enclosed by jagged ivory borders and framed with deep indigo panels. The original closures and backing are intact, showcasing not only the weaver's artistry but also the utilitarian function of this piece. These Khorjin bags were traditionally slung over pack animals and used by migrating tribes—this one is both a practical relic and a powerful visual artifact.
About Shahsavan Tribal Khorjin
Khorjin, meaning “saddlebag” in Persian, refers to twin-compartment bags made by nomadic tribes for carrying goods on donkeys, horses, or camels. Among the finest examples are those woven by the Shahsavan—Turkic-speaking nomads living primarily in northwestern Iran. Shahsavan Khorjin bags are prized for their intricate geometric patterns, bold color contrasts, and tightly packed symmetrical knots. These pieces were not just utilitarian—they served as symbols of status and pride, reflecting the weaver’s skill and the cultural heritage of mobile pastoral life in the harsh terrain of the Caucasus-bordering regions.

Perfect rug! Matches an identical karastan I inherited from my grandparents, but it’s in even better shape!

I am THRILLED with my new rug. It's beyond stunning and such high quality. I had been a little concerned about if there were stains on the fringe due to the photos (though the listing stated there were no stains) and I'm happy to report that the listing was correct- everything looks lovely. The shipping was fairly prompt, the rug was well wrapped and rolled, and it truly looks even better in person. Would definitely recommend this seller!

Packing and shipping were perfect. The rug is exactly as described and the colors are as pictured. While it is a bit scary to me to buy an expensive item like this, sight unseen, this is clearly a very honorable and knowledgeable merchant. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again in the future.

As always, this seller delivers both in service and product. First place I head when looking for a quality rug!

This is a beautiful, extremely dense vintage rug. However there were SEVERAL repairs made to the rug that were not pointed out in the sales description. Shipping also took much longer than expected. Overall, I’m happy with it.

Arrived early. Love the rug the only concern was the color was darker then my monitor showed. The description was accurate as it was described as taupe, looked beige on my monitor. Regardless, works in my dining room.

Arrived early and I can tell this is a quality rug as it is thick, does not shed and the pattern is sharp.

Same as my other review as I ordered two rugs. They were packed well, delivered quickly and in great shape.

Fed up with Fed Ex. They didn't deliver on date announced, didn't offer another date, refused to deliver to my home, I had to drive to their store and pick up the item.

Fantastic Rug. Beautiful. As described. Can't say enough about the Seller. The best. I am extremely happy with my purchase and highly recommend them. All their rugs are "jewels". Packaging and shipping were incredible. The rug was protected and wrapped to perfection. Words can't describe how nice this rug truly is. It warms the room. Terrific condition for being 100 years old.
