This is a wall art made with a vintage silk haori jacket from the 1970s.
This wall art showcases the beauty of the Japanese plum blossom also known as "Ume". Yuzen dyeing technique, the Japanese resist dyeing technique using the rice paste resist (both dyed and undyed) is used on this fabric and this paste keeps the dye areas separated. In this wall art, plum blossoms are coloured with stenciled and other details such as the outline of the flowers and the branches are carefully hand-painted. This painting is done in a style of ink wash painting. This cream-coloured fabric has a beautiful woven pattern of Chrysanthemums which can only be seen under certain lighting. If you are looking for Japanese wall art, this plum blossom can bring a piece of Japan to your house. This fabric is a little piece of art.
The fabrics we use are in excellent condition, though sometimes there are small marks, blemishes, and or creases indicative of the fabric's rich history. If you have any questions or concerns, please send us a message.
