A Length of Shibori Dyed Cotton: Undulating Lines and Squares

$50.00 USD

early to mid twentieth century
52 1/4" x 13 1/2", 135.5 cm x 34 cm

This is a lovely length of indigo dyed cotton shibori that was once part of a yukata or a casual, unlined summer kimono. Because of this there are ingrained creases that are impressed onto the piece from its time as a yukata.

It shows two tones of blue and the predominant design is that of undulating, parallel lines called tatewaku, sometimes referred to as rising steam. Set inside this pattern are undyed squares: note on the accompanying detail photo that one of these squares has accidentally be filled and not left blank.

A really attractive length of indigo dyed cotton shibori, this one has a delightful and slightly unusual pattern.
