Aqil Suleymanli, a young artisan from Masalli district and a member of the ABAD family, was born into a family of carpenters and learned the secrets of woodworking from his father. He began his artistic journey by painting various designs on dried wood pieces collected from the forest.

Over the years, Aqil refined his skills, creating a range of souvenirs, candlesticks, and flower pots, which he sold to customers. His handcrafted works were purchased by people from Masalli and surrounding districts, who used them to enhance the interior design of their homes and public spaces.

This success inspired Aqil to establish his own small business. To further this goal, he applied to ABAD and signed a cooperation agreement, seeking support to promote and sell his products. His primary aim in joining ABAD was to gain recognition for his creations and expand their market reach.

Today, Aqil Suleymanli’s handcrafted works are showcased and available for purchase at ABAD craftsmanship centers.
