With their geometric and often minimalistic patterns, the fascinating traditional fabrics of the Nagas provide an unparalleled exception in India‘s world of textiles. In this monograph, Marion Wettstein deciphers the cultural meaning of textile design in a scholarly precise way, capturing their idiosyncratic aesthetic in colour pencil and watercolour.
