About the Item

This mid-19th-century Uzbek silk brocade coat is distinguished by its luminous magenta ground and large-scale golden floral motifs, accented with subtle touches of blue and ivory. The textile’s shimmering metallic threadwork and saturated color palette reflect the refined urban aesthetics of 19th-century Bukhara. Designed as an outer garment, this type of coat was worn layered over robes, its generous proportions allowing ease of movement and signaling social stature. The coat is lined in silk on cotton and retains significant elements of its original handwoven construction. Minor visible repairs are present, consistent with its age and history of use. The wide sleeves, flared body, and draped silhouette exemplify the characteristic tailoring of Central Asian garments from this period. Dimensions: Length (Neck to Hem): 138 cm (51.2 in) Width (Sleeve to Sleeve): 208 cm (81.9 in) 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.
