Size: 7ft 5in x 6ft 5in (225 x 195cm).Antique Uzbek suzani, silk on a yellow 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 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 suzani is beautifully embroidered in silk of a yellow cotton ground, the design has a central medallion surrounded by floral designs. It was probably woven in Southern Uzbekistan, Shahrisabz region. The suzani would have been used as a cover for a bed or wall hanging.
The condition is excellent with only very slight wear and a few small historic repairs and spots of staining. The suzani has not been backed.
The suzani is ready for display.
