Description

This listing is for a six-yard length of unused vintage Japanese fabric intended to be made into a kimono but never was.

This kimono fabric features the classic asanoha (hemp leaf) motif, a timeless Japanese geometric pattern symbolizing growth, resilience, and protection. Soft beige and golden brown threads are woven to form interlocking star-like shapes. Tradition and elegant minimalism.

But the real "ah-ha" of this fabric comes from a closer look at the backside, where you see that the golden-brown threads are flat not round. This is because those "threads" are actually washi paper coated with a lacquer solution and then cut into thin, thin strips for weaving. Yes, it's incredible.

This is a "partial bolt" of six continuous yards. The rest of the bolt is offered by the yard in a separate listing.
