{{Main|Piña}}
The 'Red Spanish' cultivar of pineapples were once extensively cultivated in the [[Philippines]]. The long leaves of the cultivar were the source of traditional {{lang|es|[[piña]]}} fibers, an adaptation of the native weaving traditions with fibers extracted from {{lang|es|[[abacá]]}}. These were woven into lustrous lace-like {{lang|tl|[[nipis]]}} fabrics usually decorated with intricate floral embroidery known as {{lang|es|calado}} and {{lang|es|sombrado}}. The fabric was a luxury export from the Philippines during the Spanish colonial period and gained favor among European aristocracy in the 18th and 19th centuries. Domestically, they were used to make the traditional {{lang|tl|[[barong tagalog]]}}, {{lang|tl|[[baro't saya]]}}, and {{lang|es|[[traje de mestiza]]}} clothing of the Filipino upper class, as well as women's [[kerchief]]s ({{lang|es|pañuelo}}). They were favored for their light and breezy quality, which was ideal in the hot tropical climate of the islands. The industry was destroyed in the [[Second World War]] and is only starting to be revived.<ref name="pfmf" /><ref name="go" /><ref>{{cite web|title=Piña cloth|publisher=Free Online Dictionary|date=2023|accessdate= 6 November 2014|url= http://www.thefreedictionary.com/pi%C3%B1a+cloth}}</ref>
