Description: |
Created as a ceremonial wedding dress, this item is very special. The abundant use of real Gold threads lights up the surface and the deeply saturated colors of the base fabric provide a dramatic contrast. The pattern is rigorously geometric and the effect is exquisite. The triangular motif represents bamboo seeds.
The technical name for textiles which have this kind of supplemental weaving is Songket.
