Fabric History/Pedigree: 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: Lightweight silk from woman's kimono with a light pastel blue  color background; Fabric is printed on one side, retro designs of flowers (peonies, chrysanthemums, cherry blossoms, others), maple leaves, and other classic elements such as clouds, waves, hills; most every element has either partial or total metallic gold applique; Other colors: off-white, light peach, burgundy, greens, cream color; fabric is slightly textured, almost chirimen, nice drape; 1980s kimono designers liked to do prints of designs seen in 1930s or earlier formal kimonos designs; We find this one truly distinctive -- suitable for framing/hanging.

NOTE: Perfect for making scarf, and accessories.

Colors:  Reminder that colors differ on different monitors and devices; please use our text color descriptions in your consideration.

Condition: Excellent.
