A Length of Indigo on Indigo Miura Shibori: Hand Spun Cotton
$75.00 USD
late nineteenth, early twentieth century
29" x 13 1/4", 73.5 cm x 33.5 cm
This is a beautiful length of old indigo dyed shibori cloth: the cotton is hand woven from from hand spun yarns and has a marvelous, hand made texture.
It is of good weight.
The shibori is a blue-on-blue field done in the miura technique. Miura shibori looks like a dappled field of uniform-sized splotches.
This length was taken from a garment and it is slightly light faded, more on the reverse side than the one shown here.
A not-so-often seen length of indigo dyed cotton shibori of such good age this piece is wonderful for its expertly done pattern and for its wonderful old hand woven cotton.
Recommended.
