The embroidery of Shahrisabz is distinguished decoration, the richness of intricate patterns and iridescence; they are often filled seam "Kanda-hayol" and cross "iroki". The effect of Shahrisabz embroidery presented in the exposition is achieved by cutting the entire surface of the pattern with a small pattern, almost entirely covering the background. An important role in this case is played by a contrasting combination of red and green colors on a grayish background of cotton fabric.
