Kimono Art / Japanese Art / "FUMI-BAKO"

About the Item

"FUMI-BAKO" by Kimono-Couture Japanese Kimono Art This Kimono Art is a creation meticulously crafted from the finest quality Japanese kimono obi. We, at Kimono-Couture, have bestowed the name "FUMI-BAKO" upon this artwork. As the title suggests, the theme of this Kimono art is "FUMI-BAKO," a term referring to letter boxes that have been in use in Japan since the Heian period (784~1185 AD). FUMI-BAKO is regarded as a symbol of elegance and has been cherished throughout history as a pattern on kimonos. Furthermore, FUMI-BAKO has been a representative of bridal accessories, symbolizing a dream for many women. The Kimono Obi used in this Kimono Art has been carefully dyed in a vibrant shade of red to depict the FUMI-BAKO motif. With the addition of gold leaf accents, it exudes a refined and luxurious finish. The combination of black silk fabric and the vivid red FUMI-BAKO is truly exceptional. It is suitable for display in various settings, including shops, restaurants, hotels, and, of course, your own home. Why not incorporate this Kimono Art, showcasing the craftsmanship of Japanese artisans, into a part of your daily life?

  • Kimono Art / Japanese Art / Kimono Tapestry, "The King of Peacocks"
    Located in Shibuya City, Tokyo
    This Japanese kimono tapestry is the only one of its kind in the world. It has been carefully and meticulously embroidered by Japanese craftsmen. We are proud to present this Kimono tapestry, embroidered with peacocks and flowers of the four seasons on a silk fabric based on the traditional color called “Kinari.” The peacock symbolizes “compassion,” “fertility” and “good health.” Because its life force is so strong that it eats poisonous snakes and insects, the peacock is believed to ward off evil spirits and prevent against “misfortune” and “suffering.” Japan is famous for its drastically different seasons. As the colorful flowers bloom, we can sense that the seasons are changing. Each of the flowers on this piece are carefully chosen. Plum blossoms, wisteria, and cherry blossoms in the spring; iris and hollyhock blossoms in the summer; chrysanthemum blossoms and grapes in autumn; and peony blossoms in the winter. This is a wonderful Japanese tapestry...
