Van "Forward" & "Cross" Stitch Embroidered Needlework

These beautiful handicraft necklaces are made by Syrian Armenian women now living in Armenia. Each piece plays a role in the preservation of traditional Armenian needlework techniques.  These beautiful "forward" and "cross" stitches are inspired by the traditions of the Van/Vaspuragan region.  Copyright 2020 © Homeland Development Initiative Foundation.
