"Ilgich" is a richly embroidered textile from the early 20th century, created by an unknown Kungrat artist. The piece, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, features a vibrant array of floral motifs and geometric patterns, showcasing the intricate skills of the Kungrat people. The dark background serves as a striking backdrop for the colorful embroidery, highlighting the precise stitching and elaborate designs that characterize this traditional textile art form. The addition of a fringed border further enhances the piece's visual appeal and adds a touch of elegance.
