$30.00 USD
early to mid twentieth century
26 13/4" x 13", 68 cm x 33 cm
This is a length of indigo dyed cotton shibori that was produced in Arimatsu, one of the towns in Aichi prefecture that was a leading producer and innovator in the production of shibori.
The pattern shows a design of highly stylized, stitched shibori chrysanthemums that offer a whirling effect in the way they are conceived and executed.
The shibori is dyed onto a length of commercially loomed, fairly lightweight cotton and is in good, used condition.
Wonderful to look at!
