Overview of Yoko Trading's
Vintage Japanese Kimono Fabric Pieces Section:

Most of the fabrics here are taken from rolls or bolts originally used in making traditional Japanese kimono(s); sometimes we also take apart vintage kimono(s). We usually cut them into lengths of 1.5yds(1.37m), and widths vary from 13.5 to 15.5 inches (34.29cm to 39.37cm), depending on how old the fabric is.

From time to time we offer a grouping of similar pieces sold as a lot; less frequently we put here some parts or whole vintage Japanese banners. We also sometimes have antique textile hangings which we put into our antique decor section of this site. We put our special pieces of obi (sash), embroidered etc into their own section; On occasion we have interesting kimono garments by piece. When we do have them they are here.

Our most popular fabric product is our line of bulk kimono packages, sold by the pound with 10lbs. minimum.Full details on the bulk products begin here.

If you have a project for which you may need more than the listed length, please query us and we'll let you know how much we have of the particular fabric. For recommendations on scraps/small pieces of vintage kimono, we have someone we recommend, found in our links pages.
