Bead and tassel wall hanging
A bead and tassel wall hanging is a decorative hanging made from a narrow strip of pile rug, gabbeh or kilim, finished with long wool tassels strung with blue khar mohreh (خرمهره), the large beads traditionally tied on donkeys' necks in Iran. Some strips are woven new for the purpose; others are fragments of older rugs.
