<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gregsglass, post: 27606, member: 78&quot;]Hi,</p><p>&nbsp; Back in the 1970s a 90 year old Chinese patient of mine gave me a black silk robe with copper metal threads in cloud patterns on the front and sleeves. The back has gold thread Dragons. It is about 4 ft long. The sleeves have long gold tassels at the end but also with a slit at the armpit to be able to put your arm out of the sleeve. It is very heavy thick silk with cotton batting on the inside also lined with silk. It is not the usual thin shiny silk you normally see. I treated him for several years and visited with him at his home in Chinatown. The decor was so interesting and muted colorful. He did not have money but still had a few really nice pieces of porcelain and four large chairs all inlaid with MOP. He spoke only Chinese but his daughter-in-law translated for me. She was the first bald Chinese lady I have ever seen. She always wore a head scarf when out but in her home she was, well, bald. The old man was failing from emphysema. I wonder if anyone can tell me anything about it.</p><p>greg[ATTACH=full]6855[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6856[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6857[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]6858[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
