1. Songket 2. Hand weaving – Terengganu 3. Textile fabrics – Terengganu This book is written in Malay. Songket weaving not only serves as a utility art object that is blended neatly and beautifully worn but includes a rich aesthetic and philosophical value, derived from it. The adoption of this Malay dress also symbolizes the Malay values and customs of the highest value of civilization and politeness. However, despite its order and beauty, songket is full of diverse interpretations of meaning. Tenunan songket bukan hanya berfungsi sebagai objek seni utiliti yang diadun rapi dan cantik dipakai tetapi merangkumi nilaian estetik dan falsafah yang kaya, terbit daripadanya. Pemakaian busana Melayu ini juga melambangkan tatasusila dan adat Melayu yang tinggi nilai peradaban dan kesopanannya. Namun, di sebalik ketertiban dan keindahannya, songket sarat dengan pelbagai tafsiran makna.
