Forms: 1600s–1700s peelong, 1600s– pelong.

Origin: Of unknown origin.

Etymology: Origin unknown. Compare slightly earlier peeling n.² O.E.D. Suppl. (1982) suggests a connection with Malay pelang striped, but the fabric is frequently described as plain, and was apparently first imported from China.
