A Large Artfully Patched Boro Futon Cover: Brown Tones
early to mid twentieth century
73" x 52", 185.5 cm x 132 cm
This is a large and beautifully patched boro cotton futon cover which is entirely hand pieced and hand stitched.
The lightweight and heavily starched kasuri cotton boro futon cover is composed of eight pieces.
There are about 40 cotton patches of various sizes which adorn the surface and create a display of visual beauty. In contrast to the base cloth the variety of tone and size of the patches is what makes this futon cover the desirable boro textile it is.
This is a very good looking and very good-sized boro textile and one that should be seriously considered if you are thinking of acquiring a well-priced boro textile of high quality.
