  • c. 1900, late Qing Guangxu period. Closeup detail from fabric originally intended for a chaofu court robe. The five-clawed dragons were created entirely from silk threads covered with gold foil, which couldn't be sewn through the fabric, so they were instead tacked down via a technique called 'couching'. The chaofu, also known as an 'audience' robe, was the most formal type of court dress at the Qing court. These blue-black robes were worn by Qing nobles, high-ranking civil and military officials, and imperial guards. . . #chineseantique #chineseantiques #antiquechinese #chaofu #chinesetextiles #antiquetextile #chinesesilk #chineseart #chinesedragon #chineserobe #古董 #古玩 #骨董 #骨董品
