MALABAR 100% SILK CHECK DESIGN IN A WONDERFUL MALABAR COLOUR COMBINATION TERRACOTTA AND BLUE The Tiger and the Thistle. Tipu and the Tartan. An allusion to the tangled lifescape of the colonial Scots and their romance with the Malabar. These silk tartans display the vibrancy of Malabar colours and the timelessness and texture of centuries old hand weaving and dyeing. Francis Buchanan's journal "A Journey from Madras through Mysore, Canara and Malabar" published in 1807gives credence to the story.The Asian Educational Services of New Delhi gave full recognition when publishing a facsimile of the journals in 1988. The Hand Loomed process of this silk presents a rustic or natural effect which allows the colour and natural quality of the silk to be so appealing. Suitable for Curtains, Cushions, Bed Throws and Blinds |
