Tribal Weavings - Sale Page
Here I'm posting assorted nomads' saddlebags, storage sacks, yastiks, bands, tent bags, bag faces and rugs at sale prices.   Some are pieces on which I intended to do minor restoration work, but since I have far too many such projects waiting, I am offering them "as is."  

 Click on the inventory numbers to see larger photos.  Go to our Tribal Textiles page for more bags, or our HOME  page for textiles from around the world.
