Vintage Textile Panel from a Turkman Chuval – Turkmenistan

Description

This vintage textile is a fantastic historic artifact from the early 20th century. The donor described it as the front panel of a Turkman Chuval, a large storage bag with pile surface. Turkmen tribes use these bags for transportation of clothes and household things. This piece has a few holes, but is beautiful nonetheless. It measures 14″ wide x 35″ long.
