Sash (Kusak) c. 1890 - 1900

This Sash (Kusak), dating from around 1890-1900, is a vibrant example of traditional textiles from the Kusak region. The anonymous artist created a long, narrow piece with a rich palette of reds, oranges, yellows, and pinks. The repeating pattern, crafted through intricate weaving, evokes a sense of rhythm and is typical of Kusak weaving traditions. The sash is a testament to the artistry and skill of unknown weavers who preserved their heritage through these exquisite fabrics.
