This listing is for a double-wide, continuous 6-yard bolt of kimono fabric that was likely intended to be made into a man's underkimono.

A journey through old Japan unfolds in this charming vintage wool fabric! Soft dusty blue provides the backdrop for diagonal bands of picturesque Japanese landscapes, featuring Mount Fuji, arched bridges, sailboats, travelers, and traditional village scenes. Intricate geometric and floral repeats mingle with golden-brown crests and stenciled shibori-style patterns, creating a wonderfully eclectic design.

Unlike traditional 14"-width kimono fabric, this bolt features a double-width format, offering a wider expanse of fabric that makes it especially versatile for sewing, home decor, and creative textile projects. Although this bolt measures just 6 yards in length, its generous 30-inch double width provides approximately the same amount of fabric as a traditional 12-yard kimono bolt.

This vintage fabric retains its original Kokonoe label from Kyoto Marubeni Co., Ltd., featuring the Yoken Brand emblem. The label identifies the textile as a high-grade men's juban fabric made from 100% wool. Original care instructions indicate no washing or bleaching, low-temperature ironing, and dry cleaning.
