Uzbekistan’s craftspeople have created special items using the finest skills and materials for millennia. A culture where such skills and knowledge are passed down from generation to generation – from “usto” (master) to “shogird” (young artisan) – is captured in Assouline's Uzbekistan Living Treasures: Celebration of Craftsmanship book, a volume created by Yaffa Assouline and one which explores a world of unique handmade objects. Accompanied by images by Laziz Hamani, the work of embroiderers, blacksmiths, wood carvers, goldsmiths, and jewelers is displayed through a kaleidoscopic presentation of suzani, silk fabrics, gold embroidery, ornamental knives, intricate jewelry, handmade carpets, miniature paintings, and ceramics. The result is a colorful tome that showcases the best of Uzbekistan's arts, crafts, and artisans.
