Japanese Indigo Dyed Old Embroidery Cloth / Japanese Toy Pattern / 1912-1960

About the Item

It is a Japanese indigo dyed antique cloth. It calls its name "fu-ro-shi-ki". Originally used in the dressing room of the public bath "furo" during the Edo period. The purpose is to spread this cloth and wrap your clothes. Over time, it has become a tool for wrapping and carrying things. I think it was made from the Taisho era to the middle of the Showa era (1912-1960). This embroidered pattern is inspired by the traditional Japanese toy "ka-za-gu-ru-ma". This is a toy that has wings like a windmill attached to the tip of a stick of about 30 cm, and the wings rotate by running or swinging its arms. It is a toy from the Showa period in Japan. It is a cloth with only the image of its wings embroidered. The condition is very good. It is very beautiful when hung on the wall. it's recommended!

Vintage Japanese Formal Black Silk Kimono with Pheonix Embroidery

Located in Atlanta, GA

A vintage Japanese silk Kuro Tomesode Kimono, circa 1950s-1980s. Kuro Tomesode is a dress for married woman for the most formal occasions, equivalent of the evening gowns in the west. It is overall black, decorated only with patterns of bright colors on the bottom. This kimono has three Mon family crests on the front and back shoulder. It is lined with white silk in its interior. On the front, it features exposed white stitches around neck and breast, a very subtle and elegant touch. The bottom part of the kimono is decorated with an embroidery imagery of two phoenix in flight. The lavish use of gold and polychrome threads and meticulous rendition of the birds contrast greatly with the otherwise sober black background. Pheonix is the mythical bird traditionally represents the Queen or Female Supreme in Chinese culture. Known as Hoo-oo in Japanese, Pheonix is a symbol of good fortune, power and divine wisdom and represents the sun goddess Amaterasu, the Queen of Heaven and Creation, who was believed to be the ancestor of the lines of the Japanese imperial family...
