Muratov is decorated with carving and embossing with plant elements and geometric figures such as "kazmoin", "tuetaban", "kuskanat", and the use of rich colors distinguishes him from other masters. The article discusses the importance of A. Muratov's use of the national carving line in creating furniture of national form and its decoration from today's point of view. The master of Kazakh folk crafts A. Muratov left a rich legacy, creating his own style of combining national furniture intended for nomadic life with a sedentary culture.
