Embroidered Suzani Pillows

Suzani is a type of embroidered and decorative tribal textile made in Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries. Suzani is from the Persian سوزن Suzan which means needle. The art of making such textiles in Iran is called سوزن‌دوزی Suzandozi (needlework). Suzanis amazingly not disapear in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. In the early 15th century, Ruy Gonzáles de Clavijo, the Castilian ambassador to the court of Timur (Tamerlane), left detailed descriptions of embroideries that were probably forerunners of the suzani.[1]

Suzanis were traditionally made by Central Asian brides as part of their dowry, and were presented to the groom on the wedding day. These hand-embroidered vintage suzanis are infused with the character that only comes from everyday use. The story of each of these suzanis is as rich as their colors and as intricate as the designs that cover their surfaces.

Embroidered Suzani Pillows are stuffed with ethically sourced alpaca fiber which is one of the softest materials on earth. The many benefits of them are that they are anti-stress, anti-bacterial and bring a smile to every ones face.

A WORD FROM OUR CLIENTS

  • My stay at the Wolf Lodge was great. The house itself is artistic and very comfortable, peaceful and quiet. It sits on the northern flank of a beautiful forested mountain, and one can take nice walks from the lodge enjoying the great views of nearby Clear Lake. Enjoy!

  • "Staying in a Manzanita grove is magical. It's a beautiful place and the location is great!"
