Synopsis
Lavishly illustrated with photographs of magnificent dragon and bridal robes, rank badges, kimonos, and other embroidered textiles produced during the last two thousand years, this fascinating study of East Asian embroidery through the ages is not only educational, but also a feast for the eyes. Vintage photography and artwork showing these costumes and textiles in use are also featured, as well as Young's recent research which is sure to settle longstanding debates among textile scholars. Beyond history and style, she presents a wealth of information about the symbolism and meaning of embroidered designs, just as she explains the uses and functions of embroidered textiles.

    Package arrived slightly damaged, and even though the product was well packaged, one of the items was damaged. The seller was made aware of this, was apologetic, even though it was clear that it was not the sellers fault. The package had been clearly marked "Fragile". The seller was quick to reimburse me for the one damaged item, and all items in the package arrived intact and in good shape. I would purchase from this person again.
