WOULD BE BUYERS; PLEASE NOTE MOST OF MY SUZANIS ARE FROM A SMALL U.K COLLECTION. I HAVE NOTICED ALOT BEING SOLD FROM THE ORIGIN COUNTRY UZBEKISTAN AT SILLY CHEAP PRICES. YOU MUST REALISE THAT THESE HAVE NO AGE WHATSOEVER AND ARE PRIMARILY MADE JUST TO SELL. THEY ARE NOT EVEN 20 OR 30 YEARS OLD AND ARE MADE IN WORKSHOPS. THEY HAVE NO QUALITY OF STITCHING OR DESIGN. THEY ARE NEVER LINED AND THE ONES THAT I HAVE SEEN WITH DATES ON AND ALLEGED DAMAGE/STAINS ARE ALL DELIBERATELY MADE LIKE THAT. ORIGINALLY IN THE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURIES THESE EMBROIDERIES WERE TREASUREDPOSSESSIONS,MADE FOR A LIFETIME OF USE BY THE WOMEN OF THE TRIBES FOR DOMESTIC AND MARRIAGE USE THEREFORE I CANNOT SEE HOW/WHY THERE APPEARS TO BE HUNDREDS OF SUZANIS ON CLAIMING TO BE VINTAGE/OLD OR ANTIQUE AND READILY AVAILABLE FOR THE REASON JUST STATED IF THEY WERE NOT JUST BEING CHURNED OUT TO SELL !!!
