| 6 | 1994.7.3 | Robe | Body of the robe is made of blue silk shot with gold thread which forms designs (dragons, sea foam, flowers). At end of sleeve is an approx. 8" extension of sleeves, made of black silk patterned by groups of three bands of wide gold thread. Below this black extension is a cuff of irregular shape to drape over hand. It is made of black silk with gold designs, the same as found in the body of the garment. A 3/4" band is attached at the edge of the cuff. This material is also patterned, but differently from the body dragon design. It is difficult to ascertain the original color of the background or pattern thread in this band, since they now seem faded. At the neck, the top of the garment has a 3.75" yoke made like the cuff (band of black silk with gold thread in dragon pattern, edged at neck by narrow band of faded patterned silk). The front closure starts at the neck and quickly angles to the right side of the garment. 5 small brass droplet buttons with cut-outs and animal (?) designs are found at the neck and down the side of the garment. These fit into long cord-loops. A small pocket is found on the center of the right front flap of the robe which hangs inside or under the left front side. 20" slits are foud at the front and gack of the robe. Color: BL,BK,GD |
