Description of Design and History :
Embroidery in some form must be one of the oldest techniques for embllishing a garment. As textile is fragile, no actual examples support this assumption. Chinese believe they did embroidery as early as 3000 B.C. Egyptian tomb murals show embroidery, and Alexander "was amazed at the splendor of the embroideries he found there. To show his countrymen...he sent home the embroidered tent of Darius." Fortunately, excellent examples of this period have been recovered from the frozen barrows of Pazyryk. Embroidery, Third century B.C was found in excavations in southern russia in the mid-1800s. Finely twisted gold thread is worked onto wollen cloth in scrolling vine garlands and ivy leaves. Another fragment was ornamented with bands of woven or braided gold yarn. The historian florus recorded how in 53 B.C. in the final great battle of Carrhae, Marcus Licinius Crassus´s exhusted Roman troops gave up when the troops of the Parthian king Orodes, "unfurled thier brilliantly coloured, gold embroidered banners in the afternoon sun." Chinese Dyanastic history shows that the first Chinese ambassador was sent in 105B.c. to An-Shi Arsacid Parthia. Silks and embroideries must have been included in the exchange of gifts, for it was a custom of Chinese rulers to pacify neighbouring nomadic chieftains with such gifts. In 174 B.C. the chinese emperor notes that he sent "an embroided garment unwaded, lined with silk and woven with flowers; a long tunic, unwadded and embroidered...ten pieces of embroidered silk...." excavations at the turn of the century in central asia at Lou Lan, and followed up by sir aurel Stien with his outstanding find at Noin-Ula in northern mongolia, uncovered quanties of textiles. This is a excellent Pray design example of the revival of this type work in Uzbekestan. The Yellow Prayer cloth illustrated here shows the two panels with round medallions richly worked. This excellent handmade Old Patte Uzbek is a collectible piece which can be used as a Tapestry on the wall as it is a beautiful decoration item.
