Qashqai double chanteh with medallion
Those who have seen the other bags in this collection will quickly realize that I am partial to this composition and colour scheme. This example, purchased from a dealer in England (via another dealer in Holland), shows subtle but clear variations on both sides, which gives it quiet vitality. The 'Qashqai frieze' is woven in pile, which is relatively uncommon. Each bag measures 10" by 13.5".
