Fabric Description: This lightweight fabric is a traditional cotton fabric originally intended for use in making a yukata (summer cotton kimono) or coat; fabric is slightly translucent with the background color of black-indigo (looks black in lower light) with vertical bands comprised of 3 stripes that are silver-gray and brown colors -- please see close-ups; same on both sides.
