This Japanese priest’s kesa was made from the yardage of a Chinese ch’ao-pao- an unusual use for a formal court robe! The yardage is a brocaded silk of extremely high quality and workmanship, and the work on the kesa is of very high quality. A striking piece, it dates to the first half of the nineteenth century.
Dimensions: 80” x 46” This item is featured in gallery owner Paul Haig’s new book, Threads Of Gold: Chinese Textiles Ming to Ch’ing, available now from Schiffer Books and our website! |
