This vintage Tuareg camel saddle pillow is a stunning example of the abstract geometric art that is the hallmark of the Tuareg people. Hand-dyed using natural dyes and hand painted, this sturdy leather pillow is fully decorated on both sides with short fringe adornment.
This pillow is an especially unique find, as it still contains the original stuffing of tightly packed hay, making it quite heavy. Colors are bright and lovely. Hand-tooled, hand painted Naturally dyed leather.
