Pair of Shah Savan Khorjin

It's becoming increasingly difficult to find complete pairs of antique saddlebags such as these for they tend to be separated by a sharp pair of scissors! This pair are not only still attached but are also superb examples of the genre, with glorious all vegetable dyes and silky pile in perfect condition. Also, the wonderful 'bridge' - the part that connects the two faces - has been colourfully and thoughtfully decorated.
