The word Kesi translates to "cut silk" as the separate areas of color are woven into the warp with separate bobbins of thread. This hand-weaving technique requires a great deal of precision and patience. The final piece is lightweight and if done with skill has the same finish on both sides. Most of these Kesi Tapestries are of pictorial scenes, some are copies of paintings, which are first brush sketched onto the warp threads then woven.
