SALE Apricot Handweave, Peonies & Birds Slubby Kimono Silk by the Yard #220

Large birds with colorful long tails fly through the vines and flowers, on glowing almost-bright apricot. Lots of slubs in this handwoven, hand dyed raw silk Tsumugi. It's extremely soft to the touch, lightweight and a bit crisp. The birds and the largest flowers are around 6" across. The peony petals are blends of red-orange. There are birds throughout, about 14" apart. The design was created by first hand drawing the outlines in resist paste, then dying the orange, then rubbing in the red-orange tones, greens, blue and brown for the leaves, flowers and birds. Vintage kimono 100% silk in perfect condition from Japan.

14.5" wide and sold by the full yard. We'll cut yours in one piece from the bolt.
