Description:
London.: Thames & Hudson.. 1998.. Maps, profusely illustrated with colour and black and white photographic illustrations, 192pp, index, bibliography, notes, glossary, hardback, prior owner's signature on content page, a very good copy in slightly faded dustjacket. "The dazzlingly varied cloths presented in this book are the visual record of one of the great untold stories of Asian design history: the trade in Indian textiles to Southeast and East Asia. Outstanding among them are the patterned cottons - the famous chintzes - and the tie-and-dye silk patola, reserved for rulers and nobility. John Guy examines the history of the cloth-for-spices trade, describes the techniques of textile production, and then look in detail at the place of imported cloths in the Malay world, Indonesia, Thailand and Japan. The historical focus is on the 17th and 18th centuries, when the trade was at its peak." Publisher's description. .
