MORE DETAILS
Silk embroidery on cotton
Dated 1976
Richly embroidered on a deep claret ground, this vintage suzani is composed around four radiant floral medallions surrounding a central blossom, all connected by delicate flowering vines and framed by an elegant floral border. The vibrant palette of turquoise, saffron, ivory, deep violet, and crimson creates a striking harmony that reflects the enduring embroidery traditions of Uzbekistan.
The balanced composition combines bold floral medallions with finely embroidered blossoms and scrolling motifs, creating a sense of movement and rhythm across the textile. Floral forms symbolize beauty, renewal, and harmony, while the intertwining vines celebrate the abundance of the natural world.
The embroidered date 1976 is incorporated into the design, marking this textile as a handcrafted work from the late Soviet period, when the centuries-old tradition of suzani embroidery continued to flourish. Created using silk embroidery on cotton, it beautifully bridges historic craftsmanship with a documented moment in time, making it both an expressive decorative textile and a meaningful piece of Central Asian cultural heritage.
