Suzani Embroidery

Ranked #4,835 in Arts & Design, #76,045 overall

We see a wide range of embroidered piecework accross the Moslem world. In Central Asia we use the term Suzani but we see very similar work in Ottoman Textiles, Greek Textiles, Epirus Textiles, Resht Textiles, Moroccan Embroidery, Algerian embroidery, and even Banya Luka Applique. Put simply Suzani is embroidery on cloth in one piece or more often in several then stitched together.

While Suzani can come from cities or villages it is usually seen as more of an urban creation than a village or tribal creation.
