Shibori Scarf for Obi Peachy Pink Very Textured Silk, 54" Long #121
Sometimes worn above or over an obi, or as scarves, this is an obiage with wonderful intense dimensional shibori work. Very textured, much more so than a kimono fabric would be because it has not been steamed smooth. Two 19" long portions are shibory and puckery. The ends and 12" of the center are not; they're sleek pinky peach jacquard, 14" wide, with tiny flowers. The entire piece of silk itself is/was 14" wide, shibori puckered to just 7-8 inches. The back is quite similar but the tiny shibori spots aren't the same or as pointed. Sleek, smooth, supple, flowy and drapey (before the shibori) 100% Silk. Japan. One of a kind. In perfect condition and may be new not vintage??
