Lot 532
A collection of kera, the Bhutanese belt worn by women and men (5).JB - The red kera was specially woven for one the King's sisters, a princess, by one of the most renowned weavers in Bhutan, the wife of the Dzongda (chief administrator) of Lhuntse, the remote eastern region where the most accomplished weaving is created. The Dzongda himself was a cousin of the King. I suggested I would like to buy the red kera. But that would not be possible. Later, when I took out my Swiss Army knife to cut ... I don't remember what, the wife was wide-eyed curious. She wanted the knife. And I wanted the kera. She spoke to her husband. He nodded and said I could take the kera, but must give her the knife plus 100 ngultrums. She passed it to me, making sure that I understood the princess would be very disappointed, and realised that it would take a long time to weave another of that quality.
