The Oriental Rug Merchant stocks a compelling range of tribal bags and trappings, sourced from across the rug-weaving belt. Unlike commercially produced pieces, these items were crafted by weavers for personal use, resulting in genuinely unique, one-of-a-kind tribal and village weavings. As traditional nomadic ways of life continue to disappear, such pieces are no longer produced, making them considerably rare and collectable. Many examples are woven to a standard of fineness that renders commercial reproduction entirely unviable. Sought after by discerning rug connoisseurs, the collection includes a variety of recognised forms, including khorjins (saddle bags), namakdans (salt bags), chuvals, torbahs, and chantehs, among others.
