Tenun Pahang Diraja Royal Weaving

The royal weaving tradition of Pahang, established under the patronage of the Sultan of Pahang, produces silk and cotton fabric supplemented with gold thread in distinctively Pahang patterns that differ from the Kelantan and Terengganu songket in their colour palettes and compositional principles. The Pahang weaving centre in Pekan produces garments worn at royal functions and represents one of Malaysia's most prestigious traditional craft industries.
