REMARKS BY ANNE & JOHN SUMMERFIELD (1990): This is one of two identical pieces. They are not fragments but are complete pieces, woven to be sewed onto a commercial cotton cloth to form a long salendang or shoulder cloth called a "tuo rarak". The "tuo rarak" was worn over the right shoulder with one end coming under the left arm, under the other end of the cloth, and then over the right shoulder. This forms at the front of the body a pouch for carrying sirih, raw rice colored with turmeric to be thrown at weddings, etc. These objects stain the cotton center of the salendang, which must be frequently replaced. It is thought that this is the only Minangkabau textile that is not woven intact. The gold-wrapped thread is on a metal base, S-wrapped around a 2 S-plied silk core. The thread diameter is 0.23 mm. The strip width is 0.20 mm.
