This kimono tapestry was created from the hem design of a formal furisode kimono. (There were blemishes on the top portion but we love the display of the entire hemline design!

A sweeping cluster of many different types of slowers seem to surge up from the hemline, across a purple and white arching background. Blossoms in reds, pinks and purples, with soft gray leaves that help the floral colors pop,

Created with the yuzen technique. See the videos below for more information on this traditional textile technique.

We create these tapestries by salvaging the designed hem area of a kimono when other sections of the garment are beyond repair or rescue. We keep the processing simple, retaining the original lining and stitching (usually hand done) and simply finishing off the upper edge to allow a display rod (up to 1.5" diameter) to be inserted across the top.
