20th Century Uzbek Cotton and Silk Ikat Chapan Robe
Located in London, GB
20th century Uzbek cotton and silk ikat chapan robe Uzbekistan, 20th Century Height 122cm, width 153cm Historically, an ikat chapan robe was a status symbol worn by nomadic tribes and settles in Uzbekistan as well as other Central Asian regions. Paired with belt, tunic, and trousers, the brightness of colours and intricacy of the embroidery were indicators of the wealth of the wearer. The robe in Mayfair Gallery’s collection is brightly coloured with large, red and yellow geometrical patterns on a cream-coloured base. The inside of the robe is also patterned, with red floral motifs formed in a geometrical and symmetrical pattern. The outside trim of this silk and cotton ikat chapan robe is elegantly embroidered with white and red patterns. Such embroidery carried symbolic meaning, protecting the wearer from evil spirits. The long sleeves are a beautiful design feature, intending to cover the wearer’s hands and protect them from cold temperatures. Worn by both men and women, this eye-catching Uzbek robe...

Ceremonial Cape Textile Art from Hmong Miao People
Located in Atlanta, GA
An oversized and impressive cape worn during ceremonial dancing by Miao people (also known as Hmong in English) from Guizhou Province, China circa 1940s-1950s in a rarely intact and well-preserved condition. Miao people are diverse minority groups living in Southern China as well as Southeast Asia with complex sub-affiliations based on attires, languages, cultural customs and art tradition. They are renowned for their textile and silver craftsmanship as well as singing and dancing traditions. This cape, rather heavy in construction and striking in bold red and black, was made from wool, hemp and cotton. The surface showcases elongated diamond patterns in complementary woven wool and couched plaque on top of the cotton part. The pattern strikes the viewer with a strong sense of dignity and power. The heavy material and pattern are strangely akin to some of the Navajo weaving. The cape is in a form a jacket with long and wide sleeves, and it was meant to be used in ceremonial occasions. Our research reveals that the piece was from the Northwest Guizhou in an autonomous county called Weining. The area is of subtropical highland and the generally cold weather was reflected in the heavy materials used in this piece, in comparison with other textiles made in the warmer lowland. There is an older paper label with price tag in Chinese inside the cape. It was purchased in Guizhou decades ago by a US collection in MA. With a span of over 94 inches long, it makes a very impressive textile art piece for wall hanging. Not framed and easily shipping folded up. For a similar jacket from Weining, see "Miao Textile...

Malaysian Textile Special Design Silk
Located in Ferrara, IT
This exquisite Malaysian textile, measuring an impressive 109 x 579 cm, is a remarkable example of traditional Southeast Asian craftsmanship. The piece showcases the rich cultural heritage and intricate artistry that has been passed down through generations in Malaysia. The textile is adorned with a densely packed scene featuring a variety of figures, animals, and symbolic motifs. The imagery includes horses, birds, and human figures, all depicted in a highly stylized manner with bold, vibrant colors. The figures are arranged in a way that suggests movement and interaction, bringing the textile to life. The piece is also characterized by its elongated form, which suggests it was likely created for ceremonial purposes or as a significant decorative element in a traditional setting. The fabric is densely patterned, with an interesting design that covers the entire length of the piece. The intricate motifs, which appear to be floral or geometric in nature, are woven with a level of detail that speaks to the high skill of the artisan. The color palette of the textile is dominated by warm, earthy tones—predominantly gold and rich reds—giving it a regal and timeless appearance. The upper section of the textile features a denser, more intricate patterning, which gradually transitions into a slightly more open design as you move down the length of the piece. This gradient in design adds depth and visual interest, making the textile not only a functional item but also a work of art. This textile is crafted using traditional weaving technique, which are common in Southeast Asian textile...
