Fabric Description: Light-medium weight silk is a 1980s piece from a woman's kimono; the fabric background is lavender with the interwoven designs pixelated and have sheen; the design is a modernistic rendering of waves, streams, and in places looks like blowing waves on a windy day(that's our take on it); The line strokes/waves run laterally, side to side, in parallel. Motifs; sheen on the main side, but less on the reverse; slight drape.

Colors: Please consider our text descriptions to complement your sense of the fabric, as colors and contrast differ on different devices.

Recommended for making scarf/accessories.

Condition: Excellent.
