Item Details and Description:

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 clicking HERE

 For an excellent 'how-to' do  Arai-Hari oneself, we highly recommend Kae Warnock's Blog, Chocolate Factotum:

  • Fabric Description:  Very lightweight almost sheer priint fabric with the classic dotted field (kanoko) in pink and white, with largle-scale flowers, Iris or  Climatis in a dark burgundy color; this was probably from a summer-wear silk garment, worn at festivals.

  • Colors: Please note that colors and contrast may differ on various devices; note the colors listed in the text here. 

  • Condition:  Excellent.
