  • 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...

    Located in Shibuya City, Tokyo
    This one-of-a-kind work of art, using a traditional kimono obi, is a masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship. On a black silk ground and silver foil base, a gorgeous bamboo is embroidered by gold and silver threads and colorful silks such as red, yellow, orange, and green. Bamboo is a symbol of "healthy growth" and "steadfast loyalty" as it grows straight, strong, and spreads lush green leaves even in the cold of winter. As described in "Taketori-Monogatari" (the oldest story in Japan), it has been believed since ancient times that spiritual power resides in the joints and knots of bamboo. Thus, bamboo has been long cherished as a mysterious good-luck charm. This work evokes both the formidable power of bamboo and the elegance that overflows from the delicate use of color.

  • Japanese Kimono 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...

  • Large Framed Japanese Embroidery Dragon Tapestry
    Located in Atlanta, GA
    An impressive Japanese embroidery tapestry circa 1890s Meiji period, presented with brocade border on linen canvas in a Lucite shadow box. The stunning design features three dragons coiling and flying in the clouds. The high relief technique used to render the dragons using mostly the silver threads gives this piece a tremendous sense of motion. The most auspicious mythological creature in Japan and China, dragons were a very popular motif in textile art. In this particular piece, it is the impressive size, the superb craftsmanship, the profuse use of silver threads and near perfect condition that set it apart. Japanese Meiji textiles were widely exhibited in the west during turn of the 20th century at the international exposition. It was used to showcase the Japanese aesthetics with the techniques at their pinnacle. These expositions solidified the country's images overseas and felled the Japanese craze in the west, which turned out to be a long-lasting influence on the western art. Many pieces were purchased and stayed in the west. It is likely this estate piece was from one of the expositions based on its high quality. For two similar dragon tapestries...
