THE STORY BEHIND THE PRODUCT
Artisan Organization: Qosimov Jasur
Country: Silk Road
"My name is Qosimov Jasur and it was my father who sparked my interest in this craft. He has been involved in carving for over 50 years. I became interested after witnessing his work. I began learning carving in 2010. Early on, I focused on drawing patterns on paper. When I first started working as a carver, I drew a checkered leaf pattern. Since 2013, I have been working independently.
The tradition of this art endures from century to century. I am the successor of the Qosimov dynasty's craft, and I have made a profound impact on the applied arts of Uzbekistan during my lifetime. I have passed on my knowledge, talent, skills, and secrets to my students. These students, in turn, have gone on to train their own and became renowned masters in their craft.""
