Mid 19th Yomud Igsalyk
AGE: 1800-1850
PRICE: 1900 USD
Here is a large Yomud igsalyk in excellent condition with a complete back and side finishes. I acquired this small piece from Kurt Munkacsi in the 1990's. It has Kurt's original hanging sleeve and inventory number; sewn on by the now deceased Emily Sanford. This is an absolutely genuine and very old spindle bag once part of perhaps the largest collection of Turkoman artifacts in America. I haven't been able to buy even one more Turkoman piece from Kurt since this one!
