REMNANT Black/Midnight Blue Cloud Tree Vintage Kimono Silk Piece, Indigo Oshima? 14" X 50" #334
The labels are long gone but we are almost positive this is a rare, true Oshima Tsumugi ikat silk. Midnight indigo blue, probably true indigo, with black, probably volcanic mud-dyed in Oshima. It's sleek, smooth, lustrous, incredibly soft and intricate ikat kimono silk. The weaving is extraordinary. The outlines around the cloud-tree are gray, everything else is either midnight or black, so it reads as nearly black. It may be quite old but is in excellent condition other than the selvedges are a bit curly, not flat. 14" wide and 50" long - the last 2 photos show the whole piece. Exceptional. 100% Silk. Japan.
