Ikat Velvet

Uzbelkistan is famed for its ikats, one of the oldest forms of textile decoration known by Uzbeks as "bound cloud".

Ikat velvet, or Bakhmal uses a double silk warp which is bound and dyed by hand before weaving. It is this ancient technique that gives the patterns their characteristic "blurred" edges.

The cloth is hand woven on a narrow loom with a cotton weft to add strength and the silk pile cut by hand.
