A Large Zokin: Green and Blue

ca. mid twentieth century
12" x 16", 30.5 cm x 40.5 cm

This zokin, or sashiko stitched dustrag, is sewn from layers of cotton cloth which are then sashiko stictched together.

What makes this zokin so interesting is that it is of a good size--larger than most-- and shows lovely colors and a good arrangement of them.

This traditional dustrag shows a lot of visual appeal, both in terms of color and texture.

A lovely thing.
