{"product_id":"kikko-garden-japanique-tapestry","title":"\"Kikko Garden\" Japanique Tapestry","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe create these tapestries by salvaging a portion of a kimono when other sections of the garment are beyond repair or rescue. This listing is for a wall hanging tapestry made from a woman's kimono. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFull of color and movement, this tapestry pairs the crisp geometry of \u003cem\u003ekikko\u003c\/em\u003e (tortoiseshell hexagons) with layered seasonal florals and foliage. The design features hexagonal panels filled with traditional motifs, including chrysanthemum (longevity and renewal), plum blossoms (resilience and early spring), maple leaves (autumn beauty), bamboo (strength and flexibility), and stylized waves (endurance and flow). The kikko pattern itself is a symbol of longevity and stability, inspired by the shell of a tortoise, creating a meaningful contrast with the changing seasonal imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are signs of age showing a few blemishes consistent with the textile's vintage origin, adding to its character and history, see last photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tapestry has a sewn sleeve across the top to accommodate up to a one-inch hanging rod. (You can add one of our 30\" display rods through the gray tab below.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Japanique Tapestries offer new life to vintage Japanese textiles that might otherwise be deconstructed or trashed.  Each piece is thoughtfully salvaged from kimono, haori, or obi, then transformed into a striking display that highlights the original artistry, including dye work, embroidery, hand painting, and woven patterns. These textiles preserve history while fitting beautifully into modern spaces. No two are alike, each one carries its own story, texture, and character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Meaningful Elements","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52256642400569,"sku":"0426tap23","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/4560\/2105\/files\/tap23.png?v=1776435545","url":"https:\/\/kyotokimono.com\/products\/kikko-garden-japanique-tapestry","provider":"Kyoto Kimono","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
