Robe1022/3

Dark blue silk brocade floor-length ceremonial robe with phoenix, dragon, pearl, fire and vase motifs woven with gold metallic threads and multicoloured silk. It has a standing collar and tapered sleeves. The robe closes in front asymmetrically (left over right) and fastens at the right side seam, under the sleeve, with a gold-coloured metal (brass?) ball button and loop. The silk fabric has been cut and pieced together like a patchwork, so that the main design elements are placed at centre front and centre back, so as to produce a symmetrical arrangement of design motifs in other places, for instance on the skirt. A panel of plain dark blue matching silk, which is not seen when the robe is worn, has been used to extend the lower half of the right front where it is overlapped and covered by the left. The edges are finished with red-orange silk damask facings, cut on the bias, and the lining is bright green damask with peony motifs.
