About the book

"Illustrated throughout by fifty examples selected from the collection of Doris Rau, this book provides an introduction to the colorful ikat fabrics of Central Asia. It sets them in the context of textile production in Central Asia, which once centred around the trade of the famous Silk Road. It examines their social significance and various functions in Central Asian culture, as well as describing the complex techniques involved in their creation."--Jacket.
