Description: |
This rare ceremonial women's skirt has extraordinary beadwork on both front and back, which utilize real and imaginary animal imagery. It is an antique piece from the Indonesian island of Sumba. The cotton in quite heavy and the dark color is most likely the result of a mud-dying technique. Notice the fringes above the beadwork. |
