Pahang
hand-woven fabrics are created by using a traditional loom
called 'kek Siam'. The designs are characterized by
chequered patterns, arranged in such a way that the colour
sequence can be changed intermittently from the warp (vertical
thread) to the weft (horizontal thread). The price of each
completed fabric would depend on the materials and thread
used. Pahang hand-woven fabrics are used as sarongs, sampins,
scarves and traditional attire. Today, the creation of these
fabrics has been adjusted to fit the local and
foreign designers' taste where the fabrics are designed for
formal dinners, royal and wedding ceremonies and other
important events. It has become a handicraft that is of high
quality and demand. With the present acquired appreciation,
Pahang hand-woven fabrics long over-due fame has arrived. |

One
of the oldest traditional crafts in the country, Pahang woodcarvers
take their inspiration from Islamic art and the rich local flora.
Although some are decorative pieces, most have a more practical
purpose. From houses to palaces, the craft is seen through the
intricate designs on beams, supports, balustrades, doors, window
shutters, as well as furniture. All bear testimony to the exquisite
craftsmanship and enduring quality of the state's woodcarvers. |
