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!

'Spring Cherry Blossom Across the Clouds' - beautiful Mothers Day gift.
Incredibly beautiful pink vintage kimono fabric printed with white blossoms, and a burgundy branch blossom motif. It has a very slight sheen when the light catches it and a blossom patterm incorporated into the weave. Pink Vintage kimono silk with a woven tsunami on the reverse of the cushion.
This unique cushion has been made from a piece of cloth taken from a rare and genuine japanese summer weight kimono worn by an unmarried woman dating from the 1970'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.
Cherry blossom is hugely important in Japan and symbolises the transient nature of life, as the blossoms of spring are so fleeting yet so beautiful.
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-printed and I think this is a wonderful way of preserving such an ancient and revered craft.
