Japanese Kimono Art / Kimono Wall Art, Crimson Crane

About the Item

This wall art is carefully processed and framed from a high quality kimono obi, which is full of the skills of Japanese craftsmen. This kimono obi is decorated with a very auspicious crimson fan and crane pattern. As the expression "spreading out like an open fan" suggests, a fan has the meaning of "prosperity" and "good luck". For this reason, the fan pattern on kimono has been a symbol of happiness in Japan since ancient times. Since Cranes are believed to live for 1,000 years, it symbolizes "vitality" and "longevity". Also, cranes are believed to bring ""marital bliss"" because they stay with the same partner for the rest of their lives. The crane on this kimono obi are especially popular with ORIGAMI. The origami crane is a symbol of "peace", and is associated with "pray for long life and happiness". In Japan, there is a culture of collecting 1,000 of these origami cranes and sending them to areas hit by natural disasters or to people who are vulnerable to illness. We hope you will incorporate this lucky wall art into your daily life. Also, if you know someone who is suffering from a disaster, illness, or injury, why not give it to them as a gift with a message of "pray for disaster" or "healing from illness"?

  • Kimono Art / Japanese Wall Art /Textile Art -Longevity-
    Located in Shibuya City, Tokyo
    Longevity by Kimono-Couture *Japanese Kimono Art *Handmade by Kimono-Couture *One-of-a-kind Japanese Art This Wall Decoration is textile art framed with a kimono obi. The obi framed in this artwork is a wish for marriage, childbirth and success in life. Why not display this auspicious Kimono Wall Art in your favourite space? The kimono obi pattern framed in this art is explained below. This orange silk-based obi is decorated with a tortoiseshell l pattern. The tortoiseshell pattern was handed down from China during the Asuka period (592~710) in Japan. During the Heian period (794~1185), only aristocrats were allowed to use the pattern, and the general public could not even see it. Therefore, the tortoiseshell pattern is known as a sacred and prestigious pattern. The tortoiseshell pattern is a regular hexagonal pattern, derived from the shell of a turtle. The regular hexagon is said to be the most stable shape in nature, which means "sturdy and strong". Today, it is also said to be a pattern that brings good luck in money. The tortoiseshell pattern is decorated with pine trees, bamboo, plum blossoms, and flowers of the four seasons such as chrysanthemums, daffodils, autumn leaves, and peonies. In Japan, the pine, bamboo, and plum trees have been a traditional Japanese good-luck charm since around the Edo period (1603~1863). Pine trees are as long as 200 to 400 years old, and some are thousands of years old. Pine trees grow in harsh environments where other trees cannot thrive, and they are considered a symbol of vitality and longevity because of their year-round blue foliage. Bamboo is a symbol of prosperity of offspring because it grows straight and straight with new shoots. Because of its nutritional value, the plum tree played the role of a medicine against illness in ancient Japan. When a Japanese emperor fell ill, he ate...

    By Michael Thompson
    Located in Chicago, IL
    Chicago-based artist Michael Thompson creates unique kites crafted from split bamboo frames covered with stretched muslin and a collage of vintage Asian ephemera—including fragments of fabric, scrolls, drawings, and books collected during his travels. This kite entitled "Crane" draws its title from the quiet painting in the lower left corner of a white crane perched on the edge of a water pail. The kite is anchored by a large panel of floral silk brocade, darkened by inky pigments that drip downwards and break up the orderly design. A panel of rice paper adds bright blue color and washes of cool watercolors unite disparate fragments with irregular motion. Instructional calligraphy paintings and architectural blueprints...
