Vintage shibori indigo tie-dye ramie kimono
This beautiful kimono was made and used in the mid 20 century in north Japan.
Shibori is a traditional Japanese textile dyeing technique that involves manipulating fabric to create intricate patterns and designs. The technique involves shaping and securing the fabric in various ways before dyeing it. When the fabric is dyed, the areas that have been manipulated or bound resist the dye, creating areas of color and areas of white or undyed fabric.
This Kimono made of hand weaved ramie textiles, the texture of these ramie length and dark blue indigo are so beautiful.
All hand sewn with cotton threads, good condition to wearing or hanging as textile art.
