Printed floral cotton backing with three printed cotton patches. Cotton batting has been removed. Good condition, fabric strong with no tears or holes - small stains along bottom (see detail photo). The archival photograph by Max Penson, c.1930s-40s, shows an Uzbek family taking a meal with their stack of quilts (called a "chuk") piled neatly behind them. The quilt on the top left is made from faux-ikat cotton, a favorite material for bedding and floor cushions. The bottom photo was taken recently in the Tashkent kurpa bazaar.
