The HISTORY

Very briefly, The Armenian Cultural History Centers have rich traditions in decorating their museums with the Armenian Art of Crochets, Needle-Laces, Knitting, & Embroideries adorned with attractive figures and forms. Such types of arts are done with fine fingers by using uniquely different tools to create esthetic values of arts both for the museums and home decorative purposes.

Here, we are attempting to awaken the officials of non-Armenian Art Centers and the Art Collectors and the Art Lovers to get acquaintance with such wonderful and delicately created art works, which haven’t been studied out of Armenia and, globally speaking, it has been neglected till present time.

During the ex-Soviet era, without any exception the Armenian (Needle-Lace, Crochet, knitting) art pieces had won many gold medals as the best amongst all (15)-Republics of the Ex- Soviet Union.

Now–a-days, we are trying to introduce this type of art to the Major Museums and to the Art Lovers of the world. Considering the fact that Paris being the capital of the arts amongst all other cities, our first offer will be made to the French museums. However, attempts will be made to sell these art pieces to Major Companies & Collectors of arts of the world….

The Artists are Mr. & Mrs. POGHOS & GAYANE KARAPETYAN, who have been involved in Painting and the Applied Arts of hand-made Lacing/ Crocheting and Knitting of traditional Armenia Art.
