They are soooo pretty! I can almost feel the textures. They will look stunning when employed.
more technical queries - they are about the width of a double bed? - is that what they are on?
Where did you find the open book and the wiggly photo edges? Or are they a single PS frame?

ok I am willing to ask the silly question - what is a suzani? They are beautiful!

Can you imagine how much time it took to embroider those suzanis? They are truly amazing. I think I read once that patterns like these and the ones in rugs are unique to a particular maker and that an expert can identify who did them by the pattern. Whatever you paid is worth every penny. A museum would be proud to own these. and so would I.

Peggy,
A suzani is just what you see here on these pages. An embroidered cloth. Used as bedspreads, curtains, wall hangings, pillow covers, and traditionally...? I dont know. All of the embroidered motifs and designs are often particular to the region that they come from. Lovely arent they?

Wow, simply gorgeous colours and designs!
