REMNANT, 1/2 Yd., Bright Rust/Rainbow Ikat Stripe Tsumugi from Japan, Vintage Kimono Silk #332
Bright orange rust, mid-light weight, thin and a bit crisp, with body, this silk has every color of the rainbow plus black and vivid rust. Very slubby, textured and complex. No shine, no drape, no sleekness. In Japan they sometimes call this type of weave Kasuri Stripe. One yard only weighs 2 ounces but it looks heavier. This silk is in perfect condition from the carefully stored, never used, vintage bolt. Looks like homespun. 100% Silk. Japan.
14" wide. 1/2 yard long. Fringe and border have sold - photos are for reference.
