DEEPER SALE Infinite Circles Tsumugi Handweave from Japan. Kimono Ikat Silk by the Yard #123
Geometric circles all created in intricate kasuri ikat weave. This tsumugi was woven from black, dark red and white silk. It's from a mountainous area of Japan called Echigo. That area is known for having a centuries-old high end Tsumugi hand-weaving tradition. This silk was most likely woven on a flying shuttle loom. It's tightly woven, strong, soft, smooth and a bit crisp, not drapey. No shine. The red is slightly brighter than the photos; even though the gray is dark and dramatic, there is contrast and the dark red is a good pop of color. A true ikat, both sides are just the same. Vintage kimono silk in perfect condition. 100% Silk. Japan.
14" wide and sold by the full yard. We'll cut yours in one piece from the never used bolt.
