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! The kimono is in serious decline in Japan and I am looking to save tiny parts of their amazing history.

Full description

Perfect gift for Fathers Day.

This striking cushion depicts an abstract water ripples pattern in grey, burgundy, khaki dusky blue and white. It is made from genuine vintage kimono fabric from the 1960's yet feels quite contemporary in style. The reverse of the cushion is in charcoal grey cotton.

Whilst feeding my addiction to kimono fabric I was amazed to discover that Japan was heavily influenced by western modernist design in the 1950's and 60's. I have found fabrics heavily inspired by Eames and Day. As with European vintage print fabric, these are highly collectable. But of course THESE are hand printed, 100% silk and this cushion is entirely unique.

100% silk front cover.

Measures 35cm x 35cm.

Has a duck feather filler and non-removebale cover.

Spot clean only.

Designed by Lynn Watt in Eastbourne
