This bag came from the same source in Holland as the last one, and it measures 35 by 29 cms. It reminds me of two other abstract pieces in the collection, and especially of a small pouch which I also believe to be Afshar. They both have cotton backs (and probably warps), an upright shape, and freehand designs. Some of the colours on the pile front of this piece have faded - which you only really notice if you look inside the bag - and they have actually improved in appearance. The back has faded too. I think that it is reasonably old, probably dating from the first decades of the 20th century.
