Full description
'Pine Tree Mountain'
A beautiful hand-painted fabric depicting a rocky outcrop, mountain pool and trees. The yellow fabric is a japanese rayon 'jinken' and has a lovely lustre.
The reverse of the cushion features the crest of the family whom the kimono belonged to (see images).
I love kimonos and am fascinated by the fact that a whole kimono is constructed from just one roll of fabric called a silk bolt or 'tanmono'. It is an exact length and width and nothing gets wasted. This in turn denotes the finished size of my cushions!
This unique cushion has been made from a piece of cloth taken from a rare and genuine japanese kimono worn by a man dating from the 1960's. The kimono has been carefully unpicked and I have chosen particular details in the cloth and cropped the fabric accordingly to look good as a cushion. The fabric originates from the Niigata region in Japan which has been a main producer of kimono silk for over one hundred years.
I hope you can display and enjoy this cushion as if a beautiful work of art or sculpture. Much of the cloth I use is hand embroidered or hand -painted and I think this is a wonderful way of preserving such an ancient and revered craft.
100% jinken cover
Measures 30cm x 30cm.
Has a duck feather filler and non-removebale cover.
This is a hand-painted cushion. Do not get it wet. Seek professional advice for cleaning.
There are two identical cushions available if you are looking for a pair.
