Vintage Central Asian Suzani Runner Textile

This is a vibrant vintage Suzani textile, measuring approximately 87 inches in total length (inclusive of 3-inch golden-yellow fringes) and 27 inches in width. The piece is constructed with a rich plum-purple cotton or silk ground, featuring hand-embroidered motifs traditionally found in Uzbekistan or Tajikistan culture. The design exhibits three large central solar medallions or 'gul' (flowers), each encompassing a six-pointed star within concentric circles of ivory and black. These medallions are separated by stylized pomegranate or paisley-like shapes in bright pink and coral tones. A contrasting ivory border runs the perimeter, decorated with a continuous black scrolling vine with pink floral accents. The piece demonstrates high-quality craftsmanship, likely using a tambour or chain stitch technique typical of mid-20th-century Central Asian needlework. The embroidery is dense and well-preserved, showing no visible signs of thread loss, fading, or staining. The condition is noted as perfect, with the structural integrity of the base fabric and the vibrancy of the dyes remaining excellent. The fringe is intact along the short edges, adding a decorative finish characteristic of household wall hangings or decorative runners from this style period.
