THREAD and FIRE - Textiles and jewelry from the isles of Indonesia and Timor

The book Thread and Fire explores and illustrates the ancient connections and traditions that have developed over the centuries between the societies inhabiting the archipelago groups in Southeast Asia and between them and distant civilizations, through Indonesian and Timorese textiles, regalia, and jewelry from the Francisco Capelo collection. Collected over more than 20 years, this collection now forms part of the permanent collection of the Casa Asia-Collection Francisco Capelo, in Lisbon.
