Tapestry hanging of hand-woven off-white silk with a landscape pattern with trees, gazebo, and mountains in grey-greens, blues, browns, and grey with black and gilded gold outline; fringe at top. The Kesi weaving technique came to Japan from China in the 1400's. The Chinese used shuttles of separate bobbins of threads to weave the designs. The Japanese used their fingernails to weave, sometimes they would serrate the edges of their nails to aide the process. The Japanese called the technique tsuzure-ori "nail weaving" or fingernail weave. More information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%27o-ssu
