| SLIT PANEL |
|
This bag face has the common closure system found in southwest
Persian bags (slits and loops) and a typical decorated panel executed in different weaving
techniques, with 7 slits. From top to bottom, we can see: 1/ a 2 cm expanded plain weave border of barber pole wool strands is plied and sewn to the back. 2/ a small border of 1.5 cm executed in Soumak weaves. 3/ a 3 cm border woven with complementary weft weave in a pointed twill pattern. Colors change after each slit. 4/ a second minor border similar to the first one in soumak weaving. From bottom to top :First three rows (white, blue and red and white yarns) in soumak weaving in a two-one sequence. The white row is countered. Then small S motifs are drawn in soumak followed by three other rows (white, blue, red) with a two-one sequence. |
