From our Southeast Asia Collection, a contemporary but very beautiful Burmese shwei-zawa wall hanging from Pagan, Burma, executed in brilliant gold leaf against a shiny black lacquer ground.

Nevertheless, this is a very fine and strikingly attractive example, and for those who understand how shwei-zawa work is crea...
