This listing is silk from a deadstock bolt of unsewn, unused vintage Japanese kimono fabric. Continuous yardage is possible.

An intricate patchwork of florals and geometry gives this vintage silk the richness of a miniature tapestry, rendered in a sophisticated palette of deep purple and soft gray. The stenciled design shifts between overlapping grids (pine lozenge, fish net) and ornamental compartments, each densely filled with chrysanthemums, peonies, scrolling vines, leaves, and other stylized blossoms.

Chrysanthemums carry associations with longevity and enduring beauty, while the repeating geometric framework brings structure to the exuberant floral pattern and creates wonderful new compositions wherever the fabric is cut.

Signs of age may be present, including light wear, small marks, or subtle variations consistent with vintage textiles.

Great for piecework, especially when combined with other vintage kimono remnants.
