Genuine traditional ceremonial loincloth of the Sidang people.

Item Details

Description

Title: Genuine traditional ceremonial loincloth of the Sidang people.

Date/Period: Mid 20th century

Materials: Fiber, cotton, wool, pigments

DImensions: 400 x 31 cm.

Additional Information: The Sidang people are an ethnic minority living in the Kon Tum province, Vietnam. The traditional attire for Sidang men typically consists of a loincloth, without a shirt, which is a long and narrow piece of cloth that passes through the groin, wraps around the waist, and hangs down with ends falling in the front and back near the ankles. The loincloth is no longer worn in daily life but is reserved for festive occasions within families and village communities or preserved as cultural heritage of the province or region, representing an element that preserves the culture and identity of the people. However, it is still possible to find older men wearing these traditional loincloths in their daily lives, especially in some remote villages where the ancestral characteristics of the mountains and forests of Kon Tum are still preserved. This is also an opportunity for the community to revisit the customs and traditional practices of their ancestors, to restore and maintain cultural beauty, and to contribute to the development of a contemporary Vietnamese culture while preserving its national identity. At the same time, it promotes the image and rich cultural life of Vietnamese ethnic communities. The production of these loincloths is highly elaborate and meticulous, from the selection of threads to the dyeing with natural pigments, and finally to the weaving, embroidery, and sewing. The loincloths can be differentiated into regular and ceremonial ones. The ceremonial loincloths, like the magnificent and esteemed specimen we present to you, are beautiful and precious garments commonly used in festive occasions, woven with highly sophisticated techniques. Sidang Ceremonial Loincloth: an ancient treasure preserved and cherished as the heritage of a people.
