A Length of Indigo Dappled Shibori Cotton: All Over Pattern

mid twentieth century
60" x 14 1/2", 152.5 cm x 37 cm

This is a length of miura shibori which shows a dense field of clustered blue dappling.

This length of shibori dyed cotton was taken from a yukata, an unlined summer kimono, and because this cloth was once part of a garment, it shows ingrained creases from wear.

From a distance the cloth appears to have a slightly mottled, medium-toned color, but upon closer inspection the fine pattern of spots can be seen.

A lovely length of traditional shibori dyed cotton which was dyed on lightweight, commercially loomed cotton.
