About the Item
This mid-19th-century silk brocade chapan from Uzbekistan showcases a luminous blue ground woven with scrolling floral motifs in shades of black and bronze. The textile’s subtle sheen and intricate patterning reflect the refined urban weaving traditions cultivated in Central Asia during the period.
The coat is lined with a striking combination of printed cottons, including vivid red-and-yellow floral cloth and sections of patterned silk ikat. This layered interior, typical of 19th-century Uzbek garments, highlights the aesthetic richness and pieced-lining practices valued in regional tailoring.

The mounting service — which involves hand-stitching the robe onto a linen support for preservation — will be provided at no additional cost. Final framing can be arranged by the buyer with a local framer according to their preferred style and materials. This option is recommended for long-term preservation and display, though the robe remains fully wearable if preferred.
