A collection of antique and vintage Traditional Hand Woven Asian Pidan Textiles and other textiles from Indonesia, Laos, Burma and Cambodia.

Textiles from the hilly regions of Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and Burma are intricately and beautifully hand made and woven on looms using silk, cotton and hemp. Colours used for dying the cloth is traditionally derived from plants, seeds and trees found in their natural surrounding environment.

The traditional patterns seen in these textiles are usually symbolic to the areas or ethnic groups from which they originate, often representative of nature, plants and animals, and in some textiles from the predominantly Buddhist countries such as Thailand, Loas, Vietnam and Burma they are seen with images related to their Buddhist faith.
