Research on the study of the motif and symmetry of the Malay Telepuk (Gilding Cloth) are not extensive in Malaysia. Many documented research by textile artists and researchers mainly touch on the history, aesthetics, motif representations/meanings, development of textile design and textile cosmology especially of the Songket and Batik.The Telepuk or Gilding Cloth is generated from the technique of enhancing and beautifying cloth using gold paper. The Malaysian States of Selangor, Perak, Kedah, Johore, Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan are the main producers of the Telepuk (Gilding Cloth). This paper is an analysis and the classification of the structure of the design pattern of the Telepuk(Gilding Cloth) through its symmetrical group that is the frieze pattern. The design pattern analysis is carried out on the cloth structure (badan kain, tepi kain, kaki kain and kepala kain) the sarong, kain lepas or selendang and the headgear. The sample of the Telepuk sourced from the Selangor State M.....

Songket is an aesthetics fabric which is showed from the complexity of songket patterns which  encourage the Malay weavers to be more patient, diligent, and creative in  ideas and  furthermore,   becoming  excellent  in  mathematics.  Songket  and mathematics cannot be separated as it is needed  in all the processes as to produce the beautiful results of songket patterns. This research is  about the analysis of Malaysian songket motifs through the technique of transformation or symmetry  operation group patterns with the combination of mathematical concepts which are two-dimensional  plane method which are the frieze patterns groups and wal Ipaper patterns groups and also from  visual art concept through structural designs technique. This research is also based on the  classification of Malaysian songket patterns which are from four main structure of songket which  are badan kain, kepalakain and pengapitkain, kaki kain and tepikain of sarong and kain/epas I  .....
