Technically, the most difficult thing about Kesi tapestry is the transition of colors in these mosaic silk artworks. If you look closely, they feature a combination of colors, just like paintings. During the dyeing process, you first mix the colors with the yarns – the more the colors get involved, the longer it takes.
