This handwoven textile carries a quiet yet profound presence shaped by time.

It is likely made from hemp (ōasa) or ramie (choma), and was once used in a farmhouse, serving as a partition or covering cloth in workspaces and storage areas.

 

Its coarse texture, naturally faded tones, and slight irregularities in the fibers reveal the traces of careful handwork.

Some areas are visibly mended with sashiko stitching, while other sections were sewn together by machine, showing how the fabric was repaired over different periods and cherished through generations.

 

Originally a humble agricultural cloth, it now finds new life as an evocative interior piece, bringing history, warmth, and a sense of resilience to any space.
