This is our collection of predominantly antique artefacts and traditional textiles from the Miao people of China. In particular, the fine quality of the fabrics and the richness and detail of the silk embroidery is truly delightful. The Mountain based Miao people in particular have a very rich textile tradition, not dissimilar to the nomadic tribes of Central Asia.
The Miao are particularly renowned for their beautifully detailed yet sturdy baby carriers, baby boots, wedding shoes and of course their prized embroidered cloth.
