Master Quality Brocading on our Pink Lotus Thangkas |
|
| |
At Pink Lotus Thangka we make every effort to ensure our brocades are made to the finest quality to suit different budgets. All our brocades are made by a Master Thangka Tailor with over 15 years experience of creating Thangka brocades of the very highest order. He creates each brocade in the time-honoured tradition with meticulous attention to detail and to the exact measurements used by the different traditions throughout the centuries. |

| |
Our brocades are created to specific measurements. These equate to 8, 4, 2 and 1 as shown above. Usually this would mean the height of the painting to be 16 hence the distance from the lower border to the bottom dowel is half the height of the painting. |

Standard Silk Khadi |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Our brocades are generally made from standard silk Khadi which are a more affordable option but but still have a very nice finish. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Blue brocade with cream and red borders are the most common combinations though there are many different colours to choose from in this design |

the cover and the ribbons are made from the same type of thinner silk material but the cover is most commonly yellow and the ribbons are always red.
