Three pieces of brown damask. Byzantine, ca. AD800-1100. Stitches holes can be seen along one side and the bottom of one piece (with a couple of cream threads still remaining; one thread has two pieces twisted together). The pattern is hard to discern, perhaps floral. There are holes in the pieces. A damask is a reversible fabric of silk (also wool, linen or cotton) with a pattern formed from one warp and one weft. The pattern is in a warp-faced, satin weave with the bnackground in weft-faced, sateen weave. Often with large floral designs. Damask was produced in ancient China but took itâs name from Damascus, Syria, where it was produced for European export in the 12th century.
