Karshin are perhaps the most common weaving found that can be attributed to the Karakalpak weavers of Central Asia. The karshin is a bag for garments and other cloth articles and is placed in the lower part of the bedding (juk), which is placed on the trunk (sanduk). It consists of two parts: a face side woven in pile or mixed technique and a flatwoven back. 

The graphic design seen here is extremely attractive, an unusually nice example as many of these types that I have seen in Russian museum collections have no appeal to my eye.

The condition is good, with no holes or repair and the colors are all derived from natural dyes, though the red here is probably mixed with a synthetic.
