The Handicrafts of Central Asia

For this meetup, we will check out an exhibition that showcases traditional fashion from Central Asia

"In Central Asia, located on the routes of the Silk Roads, various ethnic groups crossed paths from ancient times, leading to the emergence of diverse cultures. This exhibition showcases colorful traditional crafts that flourished in Central Asia by shedding light on the stunning handiwork of Suzani embroidery, with its unique and mysterious patterns, as well as silver accessories, filled with prayers and wisdom. We hope you will enjoy the intricate and magnificent handicrafts from the Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum, known for hosting the best collection of Uzbek and Turkmen textiles and jewelry in Japan."
