Antique Uzbek Suzani Embroidery, c. 1800 Blending naturalism with ethereal fantasy, this spectacular embroidery or ‘suzani‘ from Central Asia conveys an aesthetic consistent with older examples of the genre. Certain features, most notably the vine-scroll, are reminiscent of the Samarkand school, while the drawing of the blossoms seems more prevalent in the repertoire of neighboring Shahrisabz.

A practical variation on the flat-weave Kilim, this Caucasian coverlet, or jajim, features a bold, inherently versatile pattern of multi-width stripes perfectly suited for Mid-Century Modern interiors. Ochre and umber stripes with narrow outlines decorate the fiery cinnabar ground while creating a stylish and sophisticated pattern yet totally understated. These graphic stripes, which would be equally at home in a western design repertoire, still manage to retain their rustic sensibilities. Hidden variations give the seemingly balanced stripes an inconspicuous asymmetric repeat. Pinstripe accents in neutral hues of white and walnut brown emphasise the boldly banded stripes and offset the high-chroma ground.

This piece is in great condition, ready for use in any home interior. Handmade Kilim rugs, antique wool Jajim...
