HOT ! Isamu Sakiori Boro

The Isamu Sakiori Boro is one of the best examples of a sakiori textiles we\'ve come across. This 1930s piece is in near perfect condition, and features a warm palette reminiscent of Japanese bodies of water. Sakiori is a traditional form of Japanese weaving that recycles vintage textiles into a beautifully variegated functional cloth that is used for clothing, obis, rugs and blankets.

This piece features a boro backing, a traditional Japanese craft created by up-cycling fabrics over generations. The cloth is created by patching and mending layers of handwoven antique and vintage textile remnants. Layers are dyed with indigo due to their inherent anti-bacterial properties. We think of boro as a conversation, a beautiful work of art created by time. We recommend using this piece as a rug, or as a bed topper draped at the end of a bed. One of a kind.
