Foremost among these are Ursula McCracken, Textile Museum Director from 1988 to 2004, who proposed the project to the Cotsen Family Foundation and whose advocacy sustained the project and brought it to fruition, and Lloyd E. Cotsen, whose foundation funded the project and who has remained committed throughout. Daniel Walker, current Textile Museum Director, enthusiastically supported the completion and publication of this Thesaurus. The terminology work leading to this Thesaurus has been a major focus, among other pursuits, of the Lloyd Cotsen Textile Documentation Project (LCTDP) at The Textile Museum. Former Directors Madelyn Shaw, Carol Coleman, and Sonja Nielsen, Associates Lydia Fraser and Carrie Beauchamp, and Assistants Erin Roberts, Brewer Thompson, and Jocelyn Gottschalk all made valuable contributions that have shaped the form and content of this Thesaurus. Textile Museum curators originated the cataloging vocabulary and contributed many hours of thought and work towards a unified terminology. Ann Pollard Rowe, Curator of Western Hemisphere Collections, in particular, shared her immense expertise and ongoing work on textile terminology and classification, as well as her subject expertise, along with Sumru Belger Krody, Associate Curator for Eastern Hemisphere Collections; Mattiebelle Gittinger, Research Associate for Southeast Asian Textiles; and Carol Bier, Research Associate for Islamic Textiles. A project of this scope could not have been realized without the assistance of outside consultants as well. Under LCTDP’s Cotsen Scholar program, textile scholars from around the world participated in textile documentation sessions and terminology discussions that informed the present work. Cotsen Scholars were: Lisa Aronson, Skidmore College; Ruth Barnes, Ashmolean Museum; Stuart (Ed) Carter, Oxford University; Peter Collingwood, independent scholar; Joyce Denney, Metropolitan Museum of Art; C.D. (Dee) DeRoche, independent scholar; Mary Dusenbury, Spencer Museum of Art, University of Kansas; Marianne Ellis, independent scholar; Kathleen Epstein, independent scholar; Kate Fitz Gibbon, independent scholar; Rens Heringa, independent scholar; Desirée Koslin, Fashion Institute of Technology; Eunice Maguire, Johns Hopkins University; Mary McWilliams, Arthur M. Sackler Museum, Harvard University; Miriam Milgram, independent scholar; Milton Sonday, independent scholar; Elena Tsareva, Russian Ethnographic Museum; Angela Völker, Austrian Museum of Applied Art; Yoshiko Wada, independent scholar; Jennifer Wearden, Victoria and Albert Museum; and Verity Wilson, Victoria and Albert Museum. As textile specialists, LCTDP and TM staff also benefited greatly from the expertise of information management specialists as we learned the nature of thesauri, their construction, and their presentation. Lydia Fraser ably indexed this publication and designed the presentation format. Consultants Jessica Milstead, Jelem, Inc., and Dagobert Soergel, University of Maryland, also were invaluable to the execution of this project. Cecilia Gunzburger Manager, Lloyd Cotsen Textile Documentation Project Introduction The Textile Museum Thesaurus is a data management tool for cataloging and searching for textiles in The Textile Museum’s collection in its electronic database. The Thesaurus functions both as a controlled vocabulary for cataloging our collections and as an electronic querying aid structured to permit the highest level of success in retrieving the appropriate objects during searches. The document in this book has been exported from The Textile Museum’s ARGUS collections database in order to share our cataloging terminology with others responsible for the management of textile collections. Purpose As an electronic thesaurus, the database of terms from which this document was generated works in conjunction with a database of object records to track catalog data, to enforce consistency of data during entry, and to expand entry values for querying. The Textile Museum developed this Thesaurus because no currently available vocabulary resource meets our need to deal with textiles globally, or develops textile terminology to the level of detail necessary for textile specialists. The Textile Museum Thesaurus is, of course, idiosyncratic to its collection, software, data standards, and current curatorial staff preferences. This publication is intended to provide a model of an electronic thesaurus for cataloging textiles to the museum and textile fields. We expect that other institutions will adapt, expand, and/or draw from our Thesaurus as appropriate to their collections and needs. Scope The Textile Museum Thesaurus contains terms used in the description of the primarily Asian, Middle Eastern, African, and indigenous American handmade textiles in its collection. Although the classification scheme in each category was developed to accommodate the widest variety of terms applicable to textiles, only terms currently in use in The Textile Museum’s catalog records are included within these hierarchies. As our collections grow, as research and scholarship progress, and as searching strategies evolve, new terms will be added to the thesaurus and organized within the hierarchies, and the hierarchies will be adjusted as necessary. The Thesaurus itself is a constantly-evolving working document. This publication contains terms in four major textile-specific categories: Object, Material, Structure, and Technique. Object includes names for textiles and related objects, as well as for textileworking equipment. Material includes terms for the substances of which textiles are made. We have created separate categories for Structure, terms for describing the physical relationships of the elements within a textile, and for Technique, terms for the processes used to create textiles. Each section contains the terms we use to catalog our museum objects. This Thesaurus is neither an exhaustive list of textile terms nor a textile encyclopedia. It does not contain definitions, illustrations, or bibliographic references. This publication is intended to share our preferences among textile terms and organizational schemes with colleagues in the field. It is not intended to provide information on what these terms mean or on how to apply them to any particular object. This publication contains only the textile-specific sections and terms from our larger electronic thesaurus. The Textile Museum uses existing external authorities for linguistic, cultural, and geographic terms, for example, which have not been included here. We also record catalog data on designs and colors, and for non-textile objects in our collection, but have not included these terms in this publication because we are not an authority on those subjects. Terms The Textile Museum Thesaurus contains 2948 terms, of which 2263 are preferred. The terms included in the Thesaurus are intended to provide a vocabulary for cataloging the textiles in The Textile Museum’s collections. As an institutional tool, this Thesaurus must accommodate the cataloging practices of several individual curators and research associates, and therefore seeks to be descriptive of textile terminology currently in accepted usage, rather than proscriptive according to any single perspective. Each term represents a discrete concept. Terms may be post- coordinated; that is, combined in whatever ways necessary to fully describe a particular object. For example, the term fragment may be combined with any object term to indicate an incomplete state, or the term warp-faced may be combined with any weave structure name to indicate this attribute of the fabric. Homographs, or words with multiple meanings in the context of this Thesaurus, are separated into two discrete

  • Some Observations on the Nature of Papyrus Bonding
    ]. Ethnobiol. 11(2):193-202 Winter 1991 SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE NATURE OF PAPYRUS BONDING PETER E. SCORA Moreno Valley, CA 92360 and RAINER W. SCORA Department of Botany and Plant Sciences University of California Riverside, CA 92521 ABSTRACT.-Papyrus (Cyperus papyrus, Cyperaceae) was a multi-use plant in ancient Egypt. Its main use, however, was for the production of laminated leaves which served as writing material in the Mediterranean world for almost 5000 years. Being a royal monopoly, the manufacturing process was kept secret. PI~us Secundus, who first described this process, is unclear as to the adhesive forces bonding the individual papyrus strips together. Various authors of the past century advanced their own interpretation on bonding. The present authors believe that the natural juices of the papyrus strip are sufficient to bond the individual strips into a sheet, and that any additional paste used was for the sole purpose of pasting the individual dried papyrus sheets into a scroll. RESUMEN.-EI papiro (Cyperus papyrus, Cyperaceae) fue una planta de uso multiple en el antiguo Egipto. Su uso principal era la produccion de hojas lami­ nadas que sirvieron como material de escritura en el mundo meditarraneo durante casi 5000 anos. Siendo un monopolio real, el proceso de manufactura se mantema en secreto. Plinius Secundus, quien describio este proceso por primera vez, no deja claro que fuerzas adhesivas mantenlan unidas las tiras individuales de papiro. Diversos autores del siglo pasado propusieron sus propias interpretaciones respecto a la adhesion. Consideramos que los jugos naturales de las tiras de papiro son suficientes para adherir las tiras individuales y formar una hoja, y que cual­ quier pegamento adicional se usa unicamente para unir las hojas secas individuales para formar un rollo.

  • Staining Wood and Natural Materials Using PRO Washfast Water Based
    Staining Wood and Natural Materials using PRO WashFast Water-Based Dyes Please read directions carefully before starting. Many materials, whose surface is only slightly wettable, may be colored with water-based (water soluble) dyes resulting in colored surfaces that do not hide the grain of the wood or the character of the substrate. This process is also suitable for the coloration of feathers, retouching wool tapestries and wool or nylon carpeting. Basically anything that does not have the high wash fastness requirements of wearable clothing fabrics. Wet fastness is good. Always do test samples before working on a large project. For additional information visit our web site at www.prochemicalanddye.com. Wear rubber gloves, apron, or old clothes. Utensils used for dyeing should never be used for food preparation. Procedure: 1. Dissolve the PRO WashFast Acid dye by placing 1 tsp (2.5 gm) of the dye in a one cup (250 ml) Pyrex container. Add 1 or 2 tsp (5 or 10 ml) of boiling water to make a paste. Gradually add more boiling water with continuous stirring to the 2 cup (125 ml) mark. Set aside to cool. 2. When cooled to room temperature, fill to one cup (250 ml) mark with denatured grain alcohol or Isopropyl rubbing alcohol (90%). Store in re-sealable glass container. 3. Apply to surface of substrate with foam brush or immerse object into dye solution for several minutes. Air dry and repeat procedure as often as needed for deeper color allowing previous coat to dry thoroughly. 4. After thorough drying, wood and similar materials may be coated to seal in the color and give lasting protection to the wood itself.

  • 23. Embroidery As an Embellishment in Fabric Decoration
    EMBROIDERY AS AN EMBELLISHMENT IN FABRIC DECORATION By OLOWOOKERE PETER OLADIPO Department of Fine and Applied Arts, Federal College of Education, Osiele, Abeokuta. Abstract Nigeria is endowed with abundant human, natural and material resources, which could be used in different vocational practices. Practitioners have consistently practiced their art with attention to uniqueness and high quality forms, styles and content. Embroidery as a decorative process in Art has played principal roles in entrepreneurship development. Hence, this paper made a critical analysis of the forms, content and significant of embroidery in art, the thread colours, fabric motifs and pattern suitable for a successful embroidery design would also be considered. The general conclusion is that if embroidery is properly done, it would increase the embroiderers sense of creativity in our societal growth and the interested individual should be encourage to learn the craft so that the tradition will remain forever. Embroidery is an interesting stitching technique by which coloured threads, generally of silk or wool are used with a special needle to make a variety of stitches, and it is used to make an attractive design on garment, wall hanging or upholstery pieces. In Nigeria today, embroidery clothing are used far and wide and its unique feature and elegance remain the ability to trill and appeal to the people’s fervent love for it whereby the artisan considered different textile materials such as guinea brocade, damask and bringing out the significance of thread with which it is worked. Ojo (2000) defined, embroidery as an art of making pattern on textiles, leather, using threads of wool, linen, silk and needle.

  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

The art tradition is however preponderant in a few Yoruba towns to the extent that the names of these towns are traditionally inseparable with the Adire art tradition. With Western education, introduction of foreign religions, influence from other cultures, technique and technology, there is a shift in the producers of Adire, the training pattern, and even an evolution in the production centre. While Western education resulted in a shift from the hitherto traditional Copyright© IAARR 2013: www.afrrevjo.net 350 Indexed African Journals Online: www.ajol.info Vol. 7 (2) Serial No. 29, April, 2013 Pp.350-370 apprenticeship method to the study of the art in schools, unemployment gave birth to the introduction of training drives by government and non governmental parastatals.
