To preserve an antique Suzani, keep it out of direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, avoid folding it for long periods to prevent stress on the fabric, and consult a professional textile conservator for cleaning.

An antique Suzani can be mounted flat on a wall as a focal point piece of art, draped over the back of a sofa, or used as a table runner to introduce rich colour and texture into a contemporary room.

Authentic antique Suzanis often show irregularities in the hand-spun threads, natural vegetable dyes that have aged with subtle colour variations, and visible hand-stitching on the reverse side of the textile.

Traditional Suzanis are typically hand-embroidered with silk or cotton thread on a foundation of cotton or sometimes silk fabric. Common stitches used include the tambour hook, basma stitch, and loop stitch.

A Suzani is a type of traditional embroidered tribal textile made in Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and other Central Asian nations. The word originates from the Persian word for needle, suzan.
