Burmese silk pah-soe piece. Konbaung Dynasty (1752-1885). Acheik-luntaya patterns in various colours. A length of 3 pattern repeats of acheik (horizontal wave) patterns with a central checkered area (L. 87 cm.) and checkered end borders (36 cm.) in navy, green, cream, yellow, white on a deep pink ground. To form the pah-soe the piece would have been "doubled and its edges sewn together along one side; the turn of the cloth serves as a bag or wallet".(Ferrars 1901).
