Suzani / Dowry Embroidery
Nurata/ Shakhrisyabz
Silk on cotton with bokhara couching, and tambour stitches.
Date - 1840s.
Although more typical of a style of embroidery from Nurata, the quality of the silk and dyes, including murex,( see glossary) and the superb borders could indicate that this is from Shakhrisyabz.
A similar piece with Shakhrisyabz provenance is shown within “Vok Collection: Suzani.” Vok, Ignazio, Munich, 1994, pp. 19/20.
Measurement: 90cm x 241 cm.
Provenance - The Sir Emery Walker Collection.
