Suzani work is the most popular form of embroidery practiced by rural women in Uzbekistan. Our Artisans have beautifully emulated the age old hand embroidery technique of the Central Asians.

There is also extensive use of couching, in which decorative thread laid on the fabric as a raised line is stitched in place with a second thread. Suzanis are often made in two or more pieces that are then stitched together

The traditional form of Suzani  embroidery was made by Central Asian brides as part of their dowry, and were presented to the groom on the wedding day.Contemporary Suzani is applied to a wider range of garments such as salwars, dupatta, shirts for men and women, bedding and other furnishing fabrics, mostly using cotton and silk.
