 Description Beautiful, rare book on the ornamentation and function of traditional woven sashes in Lithuanian folk costumes. Only 800 copies of this book were published making it quite difficult to find. The book looks at the various patterns, symbols and iconography used in Lithuanian sashes over time and their mythical/spiritual meaning in peasant culture. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations, photos, maps and diagrams. A fine book to add to your collection.
