Silk Roads

26 September 2024 – 23 February 2025 

 

'This major exhibition unravels how the journeys of people, objects and ideas that formed the Silk Roads shaped cultures and histories.'

'Working with 29 national and international partners to present objects from many regions and cultures alongside those from the British Museum collection, the exhibition offers a unique chance to see objects from the length and breadth of the Silk Roads. From Tang Chinese ceramics destined for ports in the Middle East to Indian garnets found in Suffolk, they reveal the astonishing reach of these networks.' - The British Museum
