Very colorful camel bag with tassels and goat or horse hair used in the selvedge. The reverse has a nicely designed kellim. There are other ties inside the bag with braided horse or goat hair that may have had tassels that are gone. I've only had this for only a couple months. I don't think it's very old, but it seems to have a tighter weave and great design for all its primitiveness. Can anyone tell me more about it. It sits on the back of one of my leather chairs.

I realize this is not the purview of this site but any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!]

Looks like an Afghan bag to me. It is about 25 to 30 years old.
