A suzani is a type of embroidered tribal textile traditionally made in Uzbekistan and surrounding Central Asian countries by brides as part of their dowry.

Authentic antique suzanis are typically crafted using a foundation of hand-woven cotton or linen fabric, embroidered with hand-dyed silk threads using chain stitch or couching techniques.

Authentication involves examining the natural vegetable dyes, hand-spun silk yarns, irregularities in the hand embroidery, and the age and wear of the base cotton fabric.

Suzanis are frequently mounted on linen backgrounds and framed as large-scale wall art, or draped over furniture to introduce rich texture, colour, and pattern into a room.

Antique textiles should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, mounted professionally with archival materials if hung on walls, and gently vacuumed with a mesh screen protector when needed.
