White Katazome Vintage Kimono Shoulder Bag

$170.00

This shoulder bag is made from a vintage Kimono dyed in the Katazome method.

Katazome 型染め is a Japanese method of dyeing fabrics using a resist paste applied through a stencil, typically a rice flour mixture applied with a brush or a tool such as a palette knife. Stencils are used repeatedly to make a repeating pattern. Pigment is added by hand-painting, immersion dyeing, or both. The area of the fabric covered and permeated by the paste mixture resists the later application of dye, thus creating undyed areas within the fabric.

This bag is fully lined with a sturdy Tsumugi Kimono silk with an inner pocket, and features a double-pull zipper.

Width: 32cm / 12.5 in
Height: 25cm / 10 in
Depth: 12cm / 4.7 in
Strap: 46cm / 16 in

100% silk
