Patka (sash)
18th century
Description
The dimensions of the patka (247.3 cm long with fringe and 46.5cm wide) are similar to many others but the pattern on the end panels is unusual. Instead of the characteristic row of tall flowering plants, there is a repeat pattern of staggered rows of a highly stylised floral sprig, with a short stem, a leaf and a flower head. The patka falls into the category of textile art.
