Gijduvan Glazed Ceramics Centre
The craftswomen of the Narzullaev family (Mustapshira Barakaeva, Gulbakhor Narzullaeva and Mavluda Narzullaeva) hand embroider in silk on cotton in the style traditional to Gijduvan, using traditional stitching techniques and natural colors obtained from plants, most of which they produce at home. These local textiles were used for a range of traditional purposes: as hangings for family ceremonies, as bed and table covers and as prayer mats, and have now become popular in interior decoration in Uzbekistan and internationally. Embroidery is also used to decorate contemporary garments and interior accessories, designed and developed by the Narzullaevs.
