Description

This listing is for a panel of vintage Japanese indigo cotton found as the stiff liner of a vintage obi.

Quietly beautiful in its simplicity, this vintage indigo cotton carries the character of a textile made to endure. Multiple lengths of cloth have been joined and reinforced with long rows of hand-worked vertical stitching, creating subtle linear texture across the richly faded blue surface, with visible seams, repairs, and irregularities adding a wonderful utilitarian, wabi-sabi quality.

Traditional Japanese indigo fabrics are prized for their rich, layered shades of blue, which soften and develop distinctive variations with age and use, giving each textile a unique character and history.
