Period:Unknown Production date:9thC-10thC
Materials:silk, 絲綢 (Chinese),
Technique:brocaded, 妝花 (Chinese), twill weave, 斜紋 (Chinese),
Dimensions:Length: 13.50 centimetres Width: 7 centimetres
Description:
Three fragments share this Stein number: two in the V&A and one in the British Museum. The black colour of these two fragments is deep and extremely well-preserved, especially when compared with the black in contemporary European textiles which tends to fade to brown, or deteriorates as the iron mordant in the dye rots the silk. Discontinuous supplementary wefts in orange are woven into the black twill ground to create the pattern, showing an incomplete roundel design in orange silk. It is not possible to identify the motif, but Stein suggested that the design might show part of a bird. The circular motif is a typically Chinese pattern. Weave structures: Warp: silk, S twisted, single, black, 65 ends/cm; Foundation weft: silk, untwisted, black, 22 lats/cm; supplementary weft: silk, untwisted, golden yellow, , 22 lats/cm. Pass: 1 foundation and 1 supplementary weft. Weave structure: 1/5Z twill brocaded on 5/1S twill for foundation. 妝花綾殘片，共有三塊，其中一片收藏于大英博物館，另兩片收藏於V&A博物館，在織物的一側殘留有以金黃色小型團窠紋樣，採用局部通經斷緯的妝花技法織成。斯坦因認爲可能是鳥的一部分，但由於留存部分太小，圖案無法復原。 組織結構： 經線：絲，S撚，單根排列，黑色，65根/cm；緯線：地緯：絲，無撚，黑色，22根/cm；紋緯：絲，無撚，金黃色，22根 /cm；地緯：紋緯＝1:1；組織： 地組織：5/1S向斜紋組織；妝花組織：1/5Z斜紋組織。
