The floral lattice of this suzani is exquisitely drawn with delicate floral stems that flank the varied flower blossoms and add movement to the composition. The wide border is embroidered with large flowerheads tightly wrapped by light blue vine which lifts the palette and contrasts the dark green leaves of the lattice. A Shakhrisabz suzani with a comparable lattice field formerly in the Vok collection was sold at Rippon Boswell, 25 March 2017, lot 237.
