Antique Kirghiz Wedding Embroidery
Antique Kirghiz wedding chain-stitch embroidery on black velvet, in the traditional format (3 embroidered borders surrounding a central silk ikat panel). This type of textile was used as ornament for the tent or yurt. This particular example measures 55" by 131", and is in generally good condition--minor restoration would help but is not imperative. Late nineteenth or early twentieth century.
