Sold Out

One-of-a-kind art journal covered with authentic and vintage Suzani embroidery. Each motif and symbol found within a genuine Suzani from Central Asia is steeped in talismanic meaning. Traditionally, a suzani embroidery was made as a gift for a bride to be, a part of the embroidery is always left unfinished with the hope that the next generation will finish it. A beautiful symbol of inheritance and the continuation of ancestry by way of a meaningful bond, Suzani is sacred and special in this way.

Vintage heritage textiles from around the world that already have a story to tell have been used to bind the one-of-a-kind journals in the Heritage collection.
