A one of a kind, vintage Japanese kimono silk cape. Sewn from a gorgeous kimono silk with a print of cherry blooms scattered along the shoulders. A soft sand color melds into a rich deep purple. Squares of the same fabric have been hand appliquŽd so as to suggest some of the blossoms have been blown by a soft breeze and are drifting down. The cape can be draped over the shoulders and left loose or one end can be thrown over a shoulder like a scarf.
A one size fits most, the cape measures 50 inches wide and 36 inches long.
All pieces are hand made one at a time in my Portland, Oregon studio. Fabrics are vintage Japanese silks. These very special fabrics were woven, stenciled, tie-dyed and painted by Japanese artisans. Many were still in the bolt on their way to become kimonos. Others had been sewn into kimonos but were no longer wearable. I remove the hand stitching, wash and prepare the fabrics for their new life. Each piece I make is unique, most are one of a kind. I ship USPS priority at the beginning of the week.
