UZBEK HANDMADE EMBROIDERY - OLD LARGE SAMARKAND SUZANI I would like to present to you the most impressing part of Uzbek handmade embroideries - Suzani. This name of the exquisite silk mural embroideries comes from Persian "sozan" which means "a needle". Uzbek Silk Handmade Suzanis give us an opportunity to have an insight into the old culture and traditions of this land. Such works of Art were prepared and used for ceremonial functions like wedding doweries, fittings for horsemen and their horses, and the general embellishment of reception rooms. As soon as a daughter was born in family, the mother would start to make suzanis for her dowry, and later her daughter, too, would join her in this fine art. The patterns of suzanis are an expression of women's mood and fantasies; and not only that...Most of all, Suzanis are the last exponents of an age-old tradition which draw our attention by its mysteriousness and beauty. This one item is an old Uzbek handmade embroidery - Large Samarkand Suzani. The embroidery was made in early 20th century. This large suzani used to decorate high walls of a big house of a prosperous Samarkand family. It looks really impressive because of its great pattern. The foundation of the handmade embroidery is calico fabric of blue-grey color. This item has Samarkand desing. The pattern of handmade embroidery is composed of twelve large rosettes.
