------------About the kimono scrap packs-----------------

Fabrics are primarily silk, some may be rayon or silk blends or mystery fibers and include rinzu, ikat, meisen, and prints from the early to mid-20th century (Taisho to Showa eras). I hand pick these from garments (kimono, haori, hakama) that are no longer suitable for wear. Some pieces may have small stains, needle holes, tears and signs of wear. This is to be expected with vintage textiles.

It takes on average two hours to unpick an entire kimono! The pieces are then sorted by condition, ironed and sorted into bundles. If you are looking for particular colors or styles, please let me know and I will do my best to accommodate your request.
