According to 15th century written sources, the most developed centers of paper production are Bukhara and Samarkand. Invaluable thoughts and golden words, captured on gilded pages with elegant writing perfection, amaze the whole world as examples of book art. Calligraphy is considered the most important and valuable craft in the art of book making.
