Antique Silk Ikat Chapan Coat No. 57

A vibrant example of mid-19th century Uzbek craftsmanship, this antique chapan coat showcases the bold artistry of silk ikat weaving. The exterior features dynamic motifs in red, black, yellow, and green on a warm ivory ground—typical of Central Asian textile traditions. The ikat pattern is characterized by its precise dye-resist technique, which creates a rich, painterly effect across the silk surface.

The interior is lined in a contrasting printed cotton in deep wine red, adorned with floral stripes that add further visual interest and cultural depth. The coat is finished with woven trim along the edges.

This piece is a striking representation of both aesthetic and cultural heritage and can be displayed as a textile artwork or worn as a garment.
