Description:
One of eleven wool tapestry fragments (105, 106a+b, 106-1a+b+c, 106-2, 107, 108, 109, 110, 114), originally from one large piece. 105 and 106 are the two largest ones, from which, the pattern could be basically reconstructed, as shown on the layout. It has strips and lines of crosses arranged alternately. The strips are normally two wide green strips with one narrow red strip in the centre, but occasionally two wide red strips with one narrow green strip, and the colourful crosses are normally in red or blue colour, with additional green, blue, yellow or purple colours, resulting a form similar to a Chinese character, wang, meaning the king. The same character wang was found in a pottery jar at Niya tomb no.8, in 1995. The strips were woven in a common plain weave weave, but the crosses were woven with paired wefts in a tapestry weave. There are seams on the 106 and 110, which probably show that the fragment was originally a garment. One line of cross pattern, appearing on both 106 and 107, was repaired with red plain weave woven with spun silk, to match the original colour for this line, but the same line one 105 was with a wool tapestry fragment with check pattern. 106-1a: Length 4.3cm; Width 10.5cm 106-1b: Length 2.7cm; Width 3.3cm 106-1c: Length 2.5cm; Width 1.8cm 106-2a: Length 2.3cm; Width 4.7cm 106-2b: Length 2.3cm; Width 5.5cm 106-2c: Length 2.3cm; Width 4.8cm Weave structures: Wool tapestry: Warp: wool, S-2Z, single, white, 7 ends/cm; Weft: wool, Z twisted, dark blue, light blue, red, green, purple and yellow, single for the strips, 20 lats/cm, but paired for the crosses, 18lats/cm. Weave structure: common 1/1 plain weave weave with continuous wefts for the strips, and tapestry with discontinuous wefts for the crosses. Spun silk plain weave: Warp: spun silk, Z twisted, single, red, 16 ends/cm; Weft: spun silk, Z twisted, red, 14 lats/cm. Weave structure: 1/1 plain weave. 編號爲105、106（包括106a+b、106-1a+b+c、106-2）、107、108、109、110、114的緙毛織物共有11塊殘片來自同一件毛織物。其中105和106兩件的尺寸最大，其圖案可在拼合後大致復原如佈局圖。其基本圖案爲彩條和十字形相間排列，彩條主要爲綠色寬帶夾紅色細帶或是紅色寬帶夾綠色細帶，十字形紋樣以紅色和藍色爲主，但均再加飾綠、藍、黃等更之形成爲王字形，同樣的王字紋在1995年尼雅8號墓出土陶罐上也有發現。彩條紋處以單根緯線織入，但十字形紋樣由緙織而成，織時使用雙根緯線同時織入。106和110兩件邊上有縫邊，可能說明原件是一件服裝。106和107兩件的十字紋底色原爲紅色，因殘破後又在背後襯補了另外的紅色綿線平紋織物，105的十字紋後則補了一塊方格紋的緙毛織物。 106-1a: 長：4.3釐米；寬：10.5釐米 106-1b: 長：2.7釐米；寬：3.3釐米 106-1c: 長：2.5釐米；寬：1.8釐米 106-2a: 長：2.3釐米；寬：4.7釐米 106-2b: 長：2.3釐米；寬：5.5釐米 106-2c: 長：2.3釐米；寬：4.8釐米 組織結構： 幾何紋緙毛： 經線：毛，兩根Z撚絲線以S撚並撚，單根排列，白色， 7根/cm；緯線：毛， Z撚，藏藍、玫瑰紅、黃色，其中藏藍、黃兩色緯線雙根排列，20/cm玫瑰紅色緯線爲單根排列，18根/cm；組織：1/1平紋，通經斷緯。 綿線平紋織物： 經線：綿線，Z撚，紅色，單根排列， 16根/cm；緯線：綿線， Z撚，紅色，單根排列，14根/cm；組織：1/1平紋。
