Size: 8ft 9in x 5ft 10in (266 x 177cm).Antique Uzbek Samarkand region suzani, silk on a black cotton ground.
Circa 1900.
Suzani are silk embroideries that have been woven in Uzbekistan for many hundreds of years, they are treasured family items woven by the ladies of a family usually to celebrate a wedding. They are then used to decorate the inside of the Yurt. They are often embroidered in silk on strips of cotton which are then joined together to make the complete item. The suzani is then backed with fine cotton to give it strength and body.
This example is probably from Urgut, near Samarkand and it features large multi coloured solar discs entwined in a green leafy vine. The suzani has been embroidered in silk couching stitch on a black cotton ground. A wonderful example with stunning colour.
The condition is excellent with only very slight wear, the suzani is not backed.
The suzani is ready for display or it could be used as a bed cover.
