The process of hand-dyeing and then hand-weaving the Ikat fabrics is very labor-intensive and follows the most stringent standards of fine craftsmanship. It can take a week of meticulous work to produce just a single piece.

History of Uzbek Ikat Fabrics

Hand weaving has existed in Uzbekistan since the ancient times even before the Great Silk Road first introduced the region's magnificent fabrics to the European, and later, the American continents. These rare fabrics have always been made by hand in very small batches. Passed down from generation to generation, the centuries-old artistic traditions responsible for the unique Ikat techniques and designs live on in modern-day Uzbekistan. Our Uzbek Ikats remain true to their original roots and remain as brilliant and refreshing today as they were centuries ago.

These gorgeous Ikat fabrics are a cultural landmark of Uzbekistan and Central Asia, internationally acclaimed for their infinitely diverse designs. The rich traditional Ikat patterns begin with hand-dyeing the threads. Once placed on the hand loom, the threads gradually form an organized design in the hands of a master artisan inspired by the creative heritage of the ancient Bukhara, Samarkand and Khiva. In capable hands, the Ikat designs can take a limitless number of brilliant shapes. The technique empowers a unique diversity of designs featuring energetic combinations of colors, shapes and patterns that can suit any taste and occasion.
