Indian embroidery, weaving, plaiting and lacquerwork, (1898). 'Fig 1: Embroidered carpet of the 16th century. Figs 2-6: Borders from silk-embroideries. Fig 7: Pattern embroidered in silk. Figs 8 and 9: Cotton carpets. Fig 10: Mat of plaited rushes. Figs 11 and 12: Border patterns of Cashmere shawls. Fig 13: Painted lacquerwork...In consequence of British competition, the art of weaving, formerly brought to the highest perfection, is now decaying; also in modern silk embroidery the former quiet harmony is frequently disturbed by using the too vivid aniline colours. But the Cashmere shawls, being celebrated for ages all over the world, will still keep their renown for a long time owing to their unrivalled fineness and delicacy and to their magnificent colours'. Plate 16 from "The Historic Styles of Ornament" translated from the German of H. Dolmetsch. [B.T. Batford, London, 1898]
