520 | _aPiña, the fabric woven from fine fibers stripped from the leaves of the pineapple plant, has been produced in the Philippines since the sixteenth century. Its exquisite delicacy has drawn the admiration of Filipinos and foreigners, who have considered it a worthy gift to dignitaries and royalty, as well as a valued heirloom to hand down within families and preserve in museums. This book explores the world of piña: it source and origins, the process of its making, its history as fabric and as craft, it uses, its artistry, the regard in which it has been held--in effect its past, its present and its future. | ||
