Endpaper maps, maps, 3 colour and 27 black and white plates, x + 180pp, notes, bibliography, addenda, otherwise very good hardback copy in dustjacket. 29.5 x 21cm. "A detailed study of the ancient silk remains excavated prior to WWII, by Sven Hedin in Lop-Nor, Chinese Turkistan (now Xinjiang) and by Gösta Montell in Edsen-Gol, Gansu Province, China. The material was comprised mostly of whole sections and fragmentary remains of garments recovered from ancient grave sites and presumed to date from approximately the Han Dynasty to the early Tang (7th century CE). Sylwan explores many aspects of the technologies and design concepts employed in fabrication of these garments, including materials used, dyes and dyeing, weaving, loom construction, decorative elements employed and tailoring. An appendix discusses ancient Chinese textile terminology, and the methods of cleaning silks recovered from archaeological sites. An essential reference for all with interest in the origins of the great silk tradition of China." (Publisher's description). First published in 1949.
