Camel hair پشم شتر

Camel hair (پشم شتر) is the soft tan to brown fibre plucked from camels and used undyed. Iranica records it in cheaper rugs of Chahar Mahal and Baluchistan, for browns in Khorasan and Baluch kilims, in flour sofrehs, and extensively in Shahsavan rugs from Sarab. "Camel" in a title may also name only the colour: some dealers hold that camel-coloured Serab grounds are sheep's wool dyed with walnut husk.
