Fabric History/Pedigree: 1950s fabric from under-kimono, pieces from an Arai Hari (special Japanese kimono cleaner -- see info on John Marshall, expert on Japanese textiles  HERE .)

Fabric Description Details:

This type of silk was derived from a nagajuban (under-kimono) for women, it is very lightweight, lightly-textured like chirimen (but not like modern true chirimen), and is slightly translucent, the background color is red with classic designs throughout in off-white; motifs are of larege chrysanthemums with ragged bands of mock-shibori (dots fields) undulating, evoking stream motif and running lenghtwise (vertically in our pictures); the design is on both sides, no sheen.

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 for age.
