介绍（中）	这种纺织品体现了中国纺织史上最辉煌和最成功的跨文化交流之一。这是中国在蒙古统治下的元朝编织的豪华丝绸的一个很好的例子。这种纺织品被称为nasij或"金布"，其特点是金线图案和单一颜色的丝绸粉底，用于为蒙古宫廷制作长袍。金线的使用反映了中亚纺织品的影响。然而，龙追逐火焰珍珠的主题完全是中国的。其技术细节，如金线的扁平纸基材和扭曲的Z经，是十三世纪末至十四世纪中国北方生产的典型纺织品。这种奢侈丝绸在1275年由忽必烈汗（1260-94年在位）将工匠从中亚重新安置到大都（现在的北京）之后，开始在中国北方生产。当前作品上的如意云图案在十四世纪不同媒介的中国艺术品上很常见，这有助于确定这件作品的年代。
介绍（英）	This textile exemplifies one of the most brilliant and successful cross-cultural exchanges in Chinese textile history. It is an excellent example of the luxury silks woven in the Yuan dynasty when China was under Mongol rule. Known as nasij or “cloth of gold,” this type of textile, featuring patterns in gold thread against a single color silk foundation, was used to make robes for the Mongol court. The use of gold thread reflects the influence of Central Asian textiles. However, the motif of a dragon chasing a flaming pearl is entirely Chinese. Its technical details, such as the flat paper substrate of the gold thread and the twisted z warps, are typical of textiles produced in north China from the late thirteenth to the fourteenth century. Such luxury silks began to be produced in north China following the resettlement of artisans from Central Asia to Dadu (now Beijing) by Khubilai Khan (r. 1260-94) in 1275. The ruyi cloud motif on the current piece is commonly seen on Chinese works of art in different media in the fourteenth century, which helps to date this piece.
