"B PACKAGE"
10 POUNDS VINTAGE JAPANESE AUTHENTIC KIMONO BUNDLE:
BACKGROUND STORY OF THIS PRODUCT:
We have been selling our most popular "A Package" women's kimonos by-pound online since 1998. In the process of procuring our supplies in Japan, we also come across kimonos that are not up to our standards for the A Package, but, while not suitable for wear, we felt surely they can be used by textile artists, quilters, fashion designers, and other textile artisans in their creative projects.
Therefore this package is for all those creative folks who like to give new life to these special old vintage kimonos and save them from a landfill.
BUNDLE DESCRIPTION:
This 10 pounds package contains all kinds of authentic vintage Japanese long women's kimonos, and -- if available -- short haori coats (cardigan style) from the 1950s-1990s; Summer kimonos ('Ro' silk type), while seldom included, have no liners; All kimonos have some sort of imperfections, such as stains(seldom), tears, holes, etc.; they are, however, almost always whole garments, with the occasional partial (often no sleeves); these are not rag-quality. Please see our closeups of the kind of stains you will find in this package.
FABRIC CONTENTS:
*Mostly silks and silk blends (silk with some synthetics) with the possibility of all-synthetic fabric, if they are especially nice and in good condition.
USES: Each bundle is unique, meant strictly for those wishing to create something new with - or from - them; some have used them as a canvas for dye-air painting accents, or for full re-dyeing, embroidering, or, altering or patching over flaws; There seems to be no limit to how our creative customers use these special old kimonos in ways that give them a new life, rather than these kimonos ending up in a dump somewhere.
For our sewing, creative & designer customers, to completely deconstruct these for the fabrics, keep in mind that when you take apart these kimonos you will get about 70 yards of the outer fabric -- average width of 14 inches; Inner liners add additional slightly less than 70 yards of liner yardage.
