An exceptional antique Uzbek silk cross-stitched belt. It dates to the 3rd quarter of the 19th century. It is very likely attributed to the Shahrisabz region. Many often mistakenly and generically call these Lakai. Either way, it is a great museum quality piece with an outstanding design and brilliant natural colours. The compartmented Rams horn design with ok joy motifs is visually dazzling. Easily the best of its kind. It is backed with a gorgeous silk warped cotton weft Ikat. Mint condition. size: 76cm x 9cm (30" x 3.5"). Email me your questions.
