This vibrant vintage Baloch bag, traditionally handwoven using a mix of wool and cotton. Crafted by nomadic weavers of the Baloch tribes, this utilitarian textile was likely used as a saddlebag or storage pouch, often for carrying personal or household items on a camel's back.
The front panel displays richly patterned horizontal bands featuring geometric motifs, tribal symbols, and detailed brocade work. The palette bursts with saturated reds, blues, purples, and greens, while playful tufts and colourful tassels adorn the sides and corners, enhancing its tactile and decorative appeal. Notably, the bag includes intricate patchwork squares in the central panel, possibly for added durability or symbolic value.
This piece embodies the spirited aesthetics and skilled craftsmanship of Baloch weaving traditions, making it a prized collectable or an eye-catching textile accent in any global or bohemian interior.
