Handmade fabric

In Tajikistan, women have traditionally woven beautiful handmade fabrics that are used to create gorgeous scarves, shawls, sheets, carpets, mats, hats, shoes, and much more. When shopping, you will find many items decorated with sequins, beads, rhinestones, gold embroidery, and other elements, as the local art of textiles involves the maximum use of shimmering details and sparkle.

Products for Gulduzi embroidery

In Tajikistan, gulduzi is a type of luxurious gold embroidery that is made according to a drawn pattern and is considered one of the most complex types of crafts, containing up to 10-20% gold. This unique art is used to decorate wedding shoes, dresses, and various accessories. Local craftsmen also use gulduzi to create baskets, skullcaps, and harnesses, which make excellent choices for memorable gifts.

Leather

Another popular commodity in Tajikistan is leather, and you'll appreciate the wide variety of leather goods available to choose from. From shoes and slippers to key chains, belts, bags, and more, there is something for everyone to find. The unique patterns and designs on these items reflect the country's rich culture and traditions, making them even more attractive to purchase as souvenirs or gifts.

Home decor products

Do you want to give your home interior a Tajik flavor? Local goods such as figurines, musical instruments, wall carpets, suzans, and much more will help you. A suzan is an embroidered wall hanging decorated with motifs of blooming gardens, birds, and other themes. Made from local materials, these works of art are created using traditional artistic techniques, giving your interior an authentic Tajik charm.
