Tibetan Saddle Blanket

This saddle blanket is quite beautiful if may have been made in Tibet, but possibly China. But it has some age on it, and the green colour in the middle is a rare jewel as green is a hard colour to dye. You can see the holes where the straps would go through. I would think that riding on a wooden Tibetan saddle without a good amount of padding would be painful and so there were probably sheepskins underneath this wonderful blanket. A rare find.
