A Length of Weft Based Kasuri: Pine Bark Motif

$80.00 USD

early to mid twentieth century
64" x 12 3/4", 162.5 cm x 32.5 cm

This length of indigo dyed cotton kasuri cloth shows an alluring, weft-based pattern of wavy, undulating, zigzag lines. 

The repeat pattern is that of matsukawabishi or a repeated, stylized pine bark design. The pattern is done in two styles one of which is staggered and overlaid on the other.

The result is artistic and beautiful and the large scale of the repeat is boldly modern.

Note a very small snag/hole or two on the length, shown on the accompanying detail photos.

Wonderful.
