four years and a million spiders

"The four metre long woven textile was made from the silk of more than a million female Golden Orb spiders collected in the highlands of Madagascar. The hand-woven brocaded textile is naturally golden in colour and took over four years to create. It will be shown together with a new gold cape, woven and embroidered in Madagascar, which will go on public display for the very first time at the V & A."
