Fabric History/Pedigree: 1960s silk fabric pieces received from a traditional Japanese kimono cleaner/reconstructor called Arai-Hari -- see an excellent explanation of traditional Arai Hari by textile expert John Marshall, by click-pushing HERE.
Fabric Description: This is thinner, lightweight silk derived from a woman's kimono, or possibly a nagajuban (under kimono) due to the lightness of the fabric; the fabric is a lighter shade of emerald green background that is filled with interwoven patterns of large peonies, other flowers, leaves, and decorative cords stylized cursively running at various angles throughout; The areas that are in white to light to darker copper-brown, are all done in bokashi fashion (gradation coloring as dyed); designs in those spaces are of bamboo stalks with leave and Japanese maple leaves, stylized; Other colors used: light to darker burgundy-red and dark greens; designs on one side but due to thinness of fabric, they are just lighter on the reverse; soft to the touch, slight drape.
Recommended for making scarves/accessories.
Condition: Excellent.
