Japanese Kimono Art / Tapestry, Longevity
Located in Shibuya City, Tokyo
This orange silk-based obi is decorated with a tortoiseshell l pattern. The tortoiseshell pattern was handed down from China during the Asuka period in Japan. During the Heian period , 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 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...

Shop Vintage Tapestries on 1stDibs
Whether you hang them behind your bed as a dazzling alternative to a headboard or over the sofa as a large-scale focal point in the living room, vintage tapestries can introduce an array of textures and colors to any space in your home.
Woven wall hangings haven’t consistently enjoyed the popularity or earned the highbrow status that other types of wall decorations have over the years, at least not since the 1970s, which was somewhat of a heyday for tapestries. Today, however, these tactile works of art are seeing a renaissance, as modern weavers are forging new paths in the medium while the demand for antique and vintage tapestries continues to grow.
“We are drawn to texture in environments, and we see tapestries as a subtle layer of soft ornament,” says Lauren Larson of the New York design duo Material Lust. Indeed, and a lot of opportunity comes along when decorating with this distinctive brand of soft ornament.
Think of wall hangings as paintings created by hand with fabric instead of oil or watercolors. If you’re not simply securing your treasure to a wall with nails, pushpins or Velcro, tapestries can be stretched over a frame, used to create a canopy in a cozy living-room corner, hung from a rod or placed inside a shadowbox. And because this kind of textile art is hundreds of years old, options abound with respect to subjects and designs.
For richly detailed depictions of landscapes and garden scenes, look to antique Chinese tapestries and Japanese tapestries. Aubusson tapestries are ornate wall hangings manufactured in central France that are also characterized by romantic portrayals of nature. For weavers of mid-century modern tapestries, as well as those working in textile arts today, the styles and subject matter are too numerous to mention, with artists exploring experimental shapes, bold colors and provocative abstract designs.
Antique, new and vintage tapestries can make a room feel warm and welcoming — find yours on 1stDibs now.
