About the Item

This hand-embroidered linen apron from SoShiro’s Ainu collection, a collaboration between award-winning artist Toru Kaizawa and Shiro Muchiri, took design cues from leading chefs, resulting in the addition of clever loops and pockets. The apron, partly inspired by the structure of a kimono, is made of absorbent linen, with a 400-gram-per-square-meter thread count. The Blakiston’s fish owl eyes motif was designed by celebrated Ainu artist Mamoru Kaizawa. It is hand embroidered using 100% silk, and its placement is reminiscent of a kimono obi. The Blakinston’s fish owl, a symbol of protection for the Ainu people, brings to our living spaces the epic story of their community. The Ainu collection celebrates the artistry of the indigenous Ainu people of the Japanese archipelago and their sacred relationship to forests and nature. Size: Medium or Large Long wrap around waist tie for flexible sizing Dimensions: L 101cm W 86cm H 0.1cm (39.7in x 33.85in x 0.04in).
