This late 19th-century Ottoman Turkish/Kurdish textile art piece comprises a traditional jacket framed inside a thin gold wood frame with glass. The garment uses red velvet and contrasting purple silk, decorated with heavy gold couched embroidery in geometric and floral patterns, an open front cut, and a scalloped metallic trim along the edges and cuffs. Signs of age and wear are visible across the fabric. Measuring 111 cm wide, 87 cm high, and 3 cm deep, the framed artwork suits placement in a living room, hallway, or dining room, functioning particularly well when hung above a sideboard. The maximalist style brings rich texture and historical character to traditional or eclectic interiors as a striking wall display.

FAQs

During the late Ottoman period, traditional short jacketsfrequently called cepken or yelekwere crafted across Anatolia and Kurdistan, featuring elaborate hand-embroidery that reflected regional identity, trade connections, and social status.

These garments were commonly made using silk velvet or fine wool foundations, lined with cotton or silk, and decorated with metallic thread couching using gilt silver or wrapped wire.

Authentic period garments exhibit hand-sewn structural seams, natural dye variations in the lining and velvet, slight oxidisation on metallic threads, and traditional couching stitch techniques.

Framed costume textiles function as focal wall art, adding depth, rich texture, and historical narrative when positioned above sideboards, mantelpieces, or structured console tables.

To prevent degradation, keep the framed object away from direct sunlight, ensure UV-filtering glass is installed, and maintain a stable indoor humidity level to safeguard organic fibres.
