19th century
Sold 1 January 1900 · James Cohen Antique Carpets

Description

I have photographed this landscape because the long side border is missing, yet it would hang well behind a bed in this format and the missing border much less noticeable. A really beautiful silk embroidery with great star power despite the missing piece. A few patched areas but the actual embroidery is in very good condition.

4'6" x 8'0"

Date of Manufacture

James Cohen Antique Carpets has dated this Antique Uzbek Suzani Textile to the 1880s.

This late 19th-century Ura Tube suzani from Uzbekistan is a decorative textile in the Central Asian folk art style, fashioned from cream cotton embroidered with crimson silk thread using a couching stitch. The textile displays a large central circular pomegranate medallion surrounded by smaller pomegranate clusters and floral motifs, enclosed within an inner floral border. Patched areas are visible on the cream ground, and the long side border is absent. The piece measures 138 cm by 244 cm. In a contemporary home, this textile functions well as a decorative wall hanging positioned above the bed, bringing traditional pattern and textile artistry to an interior space.

A Suzani is a hand-embroidered tribal textile traditionally created in Central Asian countries, particularly Uzbekistan, as a decorative item for dowries and domestic interiors.

Traditional Suzanis feature silk thread needlework executed on narrow panels of hand-woven cotton or linen base fabric, which are subsequently joined together.

Authentic period Suzanis display visible panel seam joins, hand-drawn design guidelines beneath stitches, natural dye colour variations, and traditional chain stitch or couching techniques.

A large Suzani can be mounted as a structural wall hanging behind a bed or sideboard, layered over upholstered furniture, or suspended as a room divider.

Keep the textile out of direct sunlight, avoid standard washing methods, and consult a professional textile conservator for mounting, cleaning, and stitch stabilization.
