This still little-known Central Asian country, a jewel of Muslim civilization with Mongolian, Russian and Iranian influences, can be discovered in the Marais.

In 2020, this craft store opened, under the leadership of Lola Till, an Uzbek psychologist and writer.

The basement is devoted to fashion, with jackets, silk and wool bags. Upstairs, 100% silk dominates, with kits at 45 euros, cushions from 180 to 130 euros, stoles at 80 euros.

A symphony of colors that inspire artisans from Samarkand to Tashkent. Let us not forget that this country with Iranian influences has inspired writers, like Amin Maalouf with Samarkand (The Pocket Book): the story of a lost manuscript which takes us on the Silk Road, at the time of the Mongolian rides. .

At the house of Uzbekistan, Shiraz welcomes you and gives you good advice from 10 a.m. to 19:30 p.m., every day except Sunday.
