The book is devoted to a unique genre of Bashkir's arts and crafts, an embroidery based on threads counting of the background material. It views issues of origin and development of Bashkir's ornamental patterns and motifs and explores their semantics. Bashkir ornament is studied in the context of a wide range of analogies from Eurasians' art. The issue abounds in vivid illustrations. This book is a reprint of the author's monograph, published in 2002.
