About this piece
A pillow that went to a party in a patchwork of flowers.
Uzbek needleworkers made this bugzhoma, or ornamental cover for stacked bedding, in cotton in the 20th century. Embroidered textiles of this kind are commonly displayed in Central Asian homes, and the large round flowers are typical of suzani work. Here crimson, plum, green and pale pink blooms fill four square panels, with white and black rosettes, leaves and sprigs between them. The stitching is dense and the colors are deep. The edges are bordered with a darker band.
About 25 inches square. Toss it on a sofa and the room is suddenly very awake.
