Istanbul the magnificent, the most oriental of European cities and the most western city of Asia.

Today Istanbul is the emblem of modern Turkey, a creative hotbed defined by its diversity, history and architecture.

One feels in the rich lace embroidery the magical beauty of the winter garden at the Dolmabahce Palace, while metallic embroidery suggests the Galata Bridge, a symbol of contrast that links the Egyptioan Spice Bazaar in the old city with modernity, luxury and opulence.
