An Unusually Colored Shima Boro Futon cover
$325.00

ca. 1930
58 1/2" x 36", 148.5 cm x 91.5 cm

This unusual coloration of black, deep coral red and grey is an interesting component to this boro futon cover fragment. Layered with patches and mending, this colored boro has seen use over the years. Probably not hand spun, this cotton is lightweight, the construction and patching all hand done and no discernable staining.

An unusual boro and a welcome addtion to any collection, or a welcome newcomer to a beggining one.
