This exquisite vintage Thai textile features intricate hand embroidery on a vivid red cotton or silk base, showcasing the rich weaving heritage of Northern Thailand, likely from the Tai Lue or Lanna ethnic traditions. The textile is adorned with a dense array of symmetrical diamond and lozenge motifs, delicately rendered in metallic threads alongside vibrant accents of magenta, orange, green, purple, and gold. The top and bottom bands are framed with ornate supplementary weft patterns, incorporating jewel-toned highlights and precise geometric borders.
