Vintage Uzbek Hand Stitched Silk Quilt in Red, Turquoise, Ivory, Black, Green
Located in Barrington, IL
Beautiful vintage hand-stitched “pieced” silk quilt from Uzbekistan in Central Asia from the mid 1900s. The silk fabric pieces are cut in geometric form and some of them have the design on them. The vibrant colors are red, green, yellow, blue, brown, and black. The quilt resembles the design of the American "Crazy Quilts". The silk quilt would be an ideal piece as a table cover or wall art. The quilt was hand stitched of individual silk pieces in each frame. It is truly a labor of love and dedication. The hand stitched quilts from the 19th and the early 20th centuries have become extremely collectable. One reason is the delicate nature of such items. Because it is so delicate, it would be a wonderful piece to use as a wall art tapestry. Dimensions: 39” x 73” Date of Manufacture: 3rd Quarter of the 1900s Place of Origin: Uzbekistan, Central Asia Material: Silk, Cotton Condition: Good Uzbek Quilts, Vintage Uzbek Silk Quilts, American Applique Quilts, Vintage Pennsylvania Quilts, Antique Applique Quilts...
