Fiziksel açıklama
Dress or shawl fabric, silk 1/3 twill. Known as Hussein Kuli Khan. Displayed behind glass. Warp: Z-twisted black silk. Weft: Z-twisted dark green silk as the ground weft and red, white, green and orange silk as the pattern wefts. Selvedge: 4 cords of Z-spun S-plied purple cotton. Black ground divided into an ogival lattice by pale scrolled stems which contain a fine floral pattern. The ogees enclose 2 motifs, one per band: a pair of outward curving botehs and a central blossom or a pair of inward facing birds either side of a straight boteh/cone. There is a band attached along the right hand side [probably 639A-1891] which forms a border with a vertical stripe of small red rosettes on a pale ground. The lower part of this band has a series of fine horizontal lines above what might be loose warp threads - in which case this is the loom end. For identical partner see T.223-1921. Brought to Britain in 1894 by Cardinal st Harper
