Hand Washable Uzbek Ikat Table Runners
Textiles add a beautiful, festive, and comforting touch to interiors and this is exactly what we had in mind when we decided to introduce hand washable ikat table runners to our collection. Textiles make our lives cozy. On top of that, Uzbek ikat fabrics have festive, almost royal looks because of their rich colors and bold ikat patterns. These are two visual characteristics that differentiate Uzbek ikats from other ethnic artisanal fabrics. Fergana Valley of Uzbekistan is an origin of these fabulous ikat fabrics where to this day they are hand dyed and handloom woven.
Where did inspiration for ikat table runners come from?
COVID-19 lockdown inspired us to introduce ikat table runners to our collection. Sharing meals with our loved became especially meaningful during the COVID isolation and we wanted the dining experience to be extra special. As a rule, table runners are designed to protect tables from spills and the dropping of food. They also have an esthetic function of decorating and creating that chic look. However, a chic appearance should not result in a extra cleaning expenses.
Usually luxury fabrics like ikats require professional dry cleaning. At UzbekAlive, we are practical and we believe that table runners should be washable. This helps to save time and money as dry cleaning is more expensive.
Today we are introducing 3 new additions to our ikat table runners collection. Runners with these unique ikat patterns can be used for various occasions and will surely become an instant favorite table decor.
