Armenian Crafts in the Ottoman Empire: Cultural Exchange and Armenian Identity

Nora Emma Khatcherian · 2015

Catalogue summary

Metalwork, khachkars, and textiles illustrate how Ottoman Armenians reproduced identity within the millet system while cultural exchange and collaboration complicated a conflict-only account of imperial life.

Why this matters

Reading crafts as physical memory shows Armenian identity being repeatedly remade under foreign rule rather than depending exclusively on independence or fixed essence.
