"The ikat silks of nineteenth-century Central Asia are unrivalled in their gloriously inventive designs, resplendent colours and technical mastery. Ikat is an ancient technique, in which colours are applied to silk warp yards in multi-stage, tie-dye resist methods before being woven." "Incorporating original research in Russian and Uzbekistan, the text places Central Asian ikat production in its historical and social context. The complex history of the region is described, in particular the social and economic structure of the ikat-producing centres, offering fascinating insights into the textile guilds and workshops, and defining the important ritual function of textiles in society." "Ikat: Splendid Silks of Central Asia stands as an eloquent testimony to the extraordinary skills of dedicated craftsmen and their magnificent creations, and is a reference work for textile scholars, collectors and designers, as well as all those interested in this area of Asian textile production."--WorldCat.
