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

English

COLLECTION FRANCISCO CAPELO

The Book Thread and Fire explores and illustrates the ancient connections and traditions that developed over the centuries between the societies inhabiting the archipelago groups in Southeast Asia and between them and distant civilisations through the Indonesian and Timorese textiles, regalia and jewellery in the Francisco Capelo collection. Gathered over more than 20 years, this collection is now part of the permanent collection of the Asian House - Francisco Capelo Collection (Casa Asia-Coleção Francisco Capelo), in Lisbon.
