This framed artwork features a hand-painted section of a vintage silk obi discovered in a traditional textile market in Michida, Japan. The silk had been carefully stored beneath layers of old kimono, preserving the delicate brushwork and vibrant colors of the original design.
The painted floral motif flows softly across the silk, capturing the elegance and craftsmanship that make Japanese textile art so extraordinary. Once worn as part of a traditional kimono ensemble, this obi now continues its story as a one-of-a-kind piece of wall art.
The antique silk has been carefully preserved and framed behind glass, allowing the beauty of the textile to be appreciated as artwork while protecting it for years to come.
Each piece created at Silk Revival Atelier gives historic Japanese textiles a second life, celebrating their artistry and cultural heritage.
