Home Design Trends // Suzanis
Suzanis are heirloom textiles from Central Asia and are highly sought after for their eye-catching graphics. The word suzani has Persian origin and means needle, referring to the embroidered details. The current trend of what is old is new has helped the resurgence of this old, traditional art form. It started popping up a few years back and has remained popular for that ethnic, global, handmade look that is prevalent in many designs today. We love the idea of dressing up an otherwise neutral contemporary room by adding a Suzani throw over the back of a simple modern couch, for example. Here are some beautiful items to illustrate this colorful trend:
Pillows, One Kings Lane
Foot Stool, Madeline Weinrib
Wall Hanging or Throw, Ebay
Colony Palms Hotel, Palm Spring
