About the Item

78197 Rare 19th Century Antique Uzbek Bukhara Suzani Tapestry, 03'07 x 05'00. Behold the Mid-19th Century Antique Uzbek Bukhara Suzani Tapestry, a rare and resplendent treasure that embodies the pinnacle of Central Asian textile artistry. Steeped in history and imbued with symbolic meaning, this exquisite hand-embroidered masterpiece was once a prized possession of noble households, signifying wealth, prosperity, and divine protection. To own such a piece today is to possess not only a tapestry, but a tangible fragment of cultural prestige — a work of art that few in the world can claim to have in their collection. The enchanting composition bursts with life: an endless field of intricately embroidered blue rosettes unfolds across the central panel, symbolizing renewal, abundance, and the eternal cycle of life. Surrounding this rhythmic garden is a spectacular border of large crimson medallions, each one radiating with dynamic energy, representing the sun’s life-giving force. The scrolling vines and delicate floral motifs intertwine gracefully, their meticulous symmetry a testament to the refined skill of Bukhara’s master artisans. The rich palette of indigo, deep carmine, and delicate blush pinks glows against the soft ivory ground, a chromatic harmony that only centuries of age can soften into such elegant beauty. Every stitch in this Suzani holds symbolic value, reflecting the hopes, blessings, and aspirations of its creators. Traditionally gifted as part of a bride’s dowry, tapestries like this one were not just decorative, but talismans of fertility, protection, and good fortune. The larger medallions, often likened to solar discs, signified the life-giving warmth of the sun, while the smaller, repeating blossoms embodied wishes for familial harmony and prosperity. This rare surviving example is a poetic echo of those sentiments — an heirloom steeped in the collective memory of generations past. In today’s world of mass-produced textiles, this Mid-19th Century Bukhara Suzani stands as a monument to exclusivity and refined taste. Pieces of this age and caliber are exceptionally scarce, highly sought after by elite collectors and world-class museums. Draped over a wall, displayed as the focal point of a grand interior, or preserved as a museum-quality collectible, it bestows its surroundings with an aura of prestige and historical grandeur. This is more than a decorative textile — it is a symbol of cultural sophistication and timeless elegance, destined for the home of a true connoisseur. Bukhara Suzani. Pomegranate Pattern. Abrash.
