The testimonial value of this book lies in the fact that it contributes to the preservation of heritage in relation to the use or production of textiles in the traditional culture of various regions of Thailand since ancient times. The culture of textiles in this sense becomes a claim for a popular art enriched by a refined practice and selective production just as the influence of the neighboring cultures of Burma, Laos, Cambodia and Malaysia also enriches the textile traditions of the Thais. Textile culture also includes the importation of specifically designed textiles from China and India for aristocratic destinations, Court clothing and royal ceremonies.
