Ink, Silk & Gold explores the dynamic and complex traditions of Islamic art through more than 115 works of art drawn from the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Works in a range of media are reproduced in full color and exquisite detail--manuscripts inscribed with gold, paintings on silk, elaborate metalwork, intricately woven textiles, luster-painted ceramics and more. These objects, which originated within an Islamic world that ranges from Western Europe to Indonesia and across more than 13 centuries (from the 8th up to the 21st century), share a distinctive relationship to the materials they are made of: their color, shape, texture and technique of production all convey meaning. Many of the objects included are functional as well as aesthetically refined, and their histories as objects that were gifted, sold, bought, modified, collected and displayed are explored in this volume.
Drawing on the latest technical information and enhanced by texts from an international team of scholars, Ink, Silk & Gold is an inviting introduction to the riches of the Islamic art collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and a window into a vibrant global culture.

Loose under arms, flattens you out
Special Size: with Contrast Trim, Size: Medium, Color: Black/White
I saw an influencer recommend this workout top, but was disappointed in the look and fit. It was saggy under the arms and flattened by bust in an unflattering way. This was returned.

Definitely an essential jacket for athletic-wear & flattering
Special Size Type: Full Zip, Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
Great quality for a great price! I was looking for a versatile athletic jacket to run in that fits over light tops & found this on Amazon. There were only a few left so I grabbed it right away, so glad I did! It's warm enough for early fall, I live in NC so I will probably use it throughout the winter too bc it's warm here. I feel like the arm length is a bit long & the sleeves a little bit tight under LS Tops but are meant to be. This is a form-fitting jacket, it does run small. I usually have to size down from an XXL to an XL in Amazon Essentials clothing bc they run big but this jacket fits me in my regular size XXL. I tried to find this type of jacket at a few different places & already out of stock in October! If it's available, buy it! You'll love it! I hope more colors are available in the future!

Nice looking and soft
Special Size Type: Full Zip, Size: XX-Large, Color: Slate Grey
Soft fabric and great color (grayish purplish/bluish). Pants fit nicely, but I may have been able to size down just for how high I can pull them up and them slipping down. On the other hand, I wish the jacket was bigger. It fits probably like it’s supposed to but you can definitely see every lump on my stomach. I will wear it unzipped. The material is medium weight, very stretchy, and nice. I do think it will probably pill- it just seems like things I’ve had that do. I won’t dry it. I’m 5’4” and weigh 195.
