Baluch (Timuri?) bag—half khorjin. 22” x 25” (56 cm x 64 cm) Another one of those Baluch or Timuri pieces that are hard to photograph so that the colors show. Good light shows that the design is stylized plants on dark blue ground in a brownish-purple hexagonal lattice. These images are taken in direct sunlight. The first is straight-on, and doesn’t show colors as well as others that are taken somewhat obliquely. Pile is in good condition all over. It has several small elements in white and purple silk, each just 3 or 4 knots. These are all at the same level across the face in the little triangles at the base of the plant motifs. In one image, my finger is pointing at one of the purple silk spots---another is to its left, about halfway to the little white quincunx figure near the left edge. To the right of these purple silk spots are two others in white silk, all at the same level. Nice goat- or horse hair side binding—mostly intact. Closure panels are flatweave in various solid colors—mostly good condition, but with some wear next to closure slots. Sometime during the useful life of this bag it must have worn through at the bottom fold. So the repair devised by the owner was to simply cut off the bottom edge of the bag, halfway through the bottom border, and bind this new bottom edge with brown overcast, which is also wearing away.
