$60.00 USD
early to mid twentieth century
63" x 14", 160 cm x 35.5 cm
This is good-sized length of indigo dyed cotton egasuri or picture kasuri.
The repeat pattern is a weft-based design of closed umbrellas, each staggered and each row a mirror-image of the one that precedes it.
The indigo dyed is of a medium tone and the hand woven cloth is of good weight.
The kasuri itself is of a really charming design and is typically Japanese.
In good, used condition.
