Artisanal Hand Embroidered Silk Suzani Pillow

Suzani means “needle” in Farsi, and this word is used to describe the magnificent, often very large, embroideries from Central Asia, primarily Uzbekistan. In the 19th century, women from Uzbekistan embroidered fabulous hangings to separate the sleeping alcove or to decorate the yurt, bed and table covers, wrapping cloths and even prayer mats. This beautiful folk art is passed down from grandmother to granddaughter over the generations reflecting each woman’s unique style and skill.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzani_(textile)

Bridal Dowry Used on Her Wedding Night

The bride’s dowry for her wedding always included these Suzanis, as many of the symbols used were said to possess magic powers to ward off evil spirits. The bride was brought to the groom’s home hidden under her embroidered veil, and their bed was adorned with Suzani bedspreads and wall hangings. The natural dyes in our silks give the yarn a natural and high luster that is superior to that of chemical dyes.

Your modern silk suzani pillow is hand woven for resale but still meticulously crafted in the traditional manner using 100% silk. The reverse side may be silk Ikat made of 80% silk, 20% cotton. These textiles exhibit the beautiful irregularities that are the hallmarks of authentic Suzanis. Uzbek fabric imported from Turkey and assembled in Los Angeles, CA. Pillow insert is 10% down/90% feather made in Los Angeles (unless otherwise specified). Marea Qol is an L.A. based woman-owned business.  More about us: https://mareaqol.com/about/
