Panel of Kincob cloth c. 19th century

This anonymous panel of Kincob cloth, dating back to the 19th century, showcases a complex, repeating pattern of stylized floral motifs woven into the fabric. The silver thread, known as Kincob, adds a subtle sheen and intricate detail to the design. This type of textile was often used for ceremonial garments and decorative purposes in South Asia. The Minneapolis Institute of Art holds this piece in their collection, offering viewers a glimpse into the rich traditions of Indian textile arts.
