The Malay Handloom Weavers: A Study of the Rise and Decline of Traditional Manufacture

The Malay Handloom Weavers: A Study of the Rise and Decline of Traditional Manufacture
The Malay Handloom Weavers: A Study of the Rise and Decline of Traditional Manufacture

Evocative journey through Malay handloom weaving history.

If you're intrigued by the delicate interplay of culture, economy, and tradition, "The Malay Handloom Weavers" offers a deep dive into a lesser-known facet of Malay history. It's not just about the beautiful textiles but the very human stories behind them; how a craft tied to identity and economy struggled and evolved over time. It's a read that's as enriching as it is enlightening, perfect for those interested in Southeast Asian history or the anthropology of crafts.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
