Fabric Description: Thin & lightweight silk originally intended to make a woman's kimono; This is a 1930s (or earlier) fabric piece which is slightly translucent and at an unusual width (11.25 inches / 28.57 cm); The weave of the fabric renders it an elastic quality, so it stretches out an inch or two when pulled; Background is solid black with designs running down the full length, to include: birds (stylized phoenix or pheasant?), butterflies, flowers in ball-clusters and decorative multi-color ribbons streaming down throughout; colors of the designs: several shades lavender, some mauve, greens, pinks, and red (see close-ups); Designs on one side only, but designs are mostly visible slightly on the reverse due to thinness of the fabric.
