Hand-embroidered with a Citrine toned cotton thread on 100% unbleached cotton, this Suzani bedcover is a textile rich in history and artistry. Each piece begins with a hand-drawn pattern, then embroidered on portable looms by groups of women working collectively, a practice that carries generations of tradition. Each piece is one-of-a-kind.

The word Suzani comes from the Persian suzan, meaning “needle.” Originating in Central Asia, Suzanis were once treasured heirlooms, made by brides and their mothers as part of a dowry. They were symbols of love, luck, and longevity, adorning yurts as protective textiles, bed sheets, prayer mats, or wall hangings.

Today, they remain highly collectable and deeply cherished for their intricate embroidery and cultural significance. This bedcover layers beautifully on a bed or adds striking character hung as a textile artwork.
