| From
Xam Tai, this unusual mosquito net border (now in the collection
of Pamela Cross) is a lovely shade of brown, with accents of purple,
gold and yellow. It is unusual because of the design motifs: elongated,
stylized star motifs with arrows; also present in a few places are
stylized animal motifs and figures with up-raised hands. One end
is a dark red rather than brown. It is all handspun cotton (or perhaps
fine hemp?) with cotton and some silk supplementary weft. Condition
is very good, tho there are soiled areas throughout. Size: 274"
(22'-10") x 9.5" |
