This listing is for one yard of reclaimed vintage Japanese fabric salvaged from a vintage Japanese kimono.
This fabric is a light-weight synthetic blend in black with an occasional red hazy-like pattern. The colors are reversed on the backside, which could also be used as the front.
Originally part of a woman's summer haori jacket, it is an open weave, so air travels through it to help cool the wearer on a warm Japanese summer night. Great for projects needing a nearly see-through fabric.
Great for piecework, especially when combined with other vintage kimono remnants. Multiple pieces may be available.
When we find vintage (circa 1950s but could be older or newer by two decades) Japanese kimono or haori in less-than-sellable condition, we salvage what we can and offer it to artisans, quilters, crafters, and designers for project work. So, the fabric has been previously sewn and though we carefully deconstruct the kimono, previous seam lines, as well as minor blemishes, may need to be worked around or trimmed away.
The inspiring designs, hand work, and the ageless beauty of vintage Japanese textiles make all the extra work so worthwhile. See video below for inspiration on upcycling vintage Japanese textiles.
