It is difficult to get the feel of this bolt from the photos - a stiff, firm silk with a very subtle pattern of banners woven with a tiny ikat pattern. Fringe on the end of the bolt. This was so difficult to photograph because of the shine and the tiny patterning, but it is a beautiful silk....

A lightening jacquard silk, it has also been cut in several places (of at least one yard pieces) and seamed back into a bolt.

Bridge at Dawn (unfinished kimono) - $100

ITEM NUMBER: 0808Unfin3

A beautifully detailed hemline pattern of bamboo and an arched bridge in this basted bolt - yes, it is a bolt of kimono silk that has been cut into the appropriate panels for a kimono and basted together, but never lined or finished. This makes it easy to finish (the seam designs are aligned) or just as easily to take apart for other projects. The pattern features gold leaf outlining some of the bamboo, hand-embroidery accents, and a wonderful color mix of summer and fall.
