Antique Silk Flag Card — PERSIA — c.1910s — Fringed Design — Vintage Tobacco Silk

A handsome antique cigarette silk card featuring the historic flag of Persia — a wonderful piece recalling the country before it was officially renamed Iran in 1935.

• Classic fringed flag design with rich deep green and crimson red bands

• Fine woven silk texture with crisp printed detail

• Clean edges, bright unfaded colours, lovely vintage condition

• A historically significant and always popular card — Persia issues are keenly collected

• Would make a standout addition to any silk flag, cigarette card, or world textile collection

This is a fine example — the colours are really lovely!
