Ethical Production

Each piece is handmade in our UK studio as part of a considered approach to making, using carefully sourced vintage Japanese silks.

• Genuine vintage kimono silks and obi belts dating from the 1930s onwards

• Sourced in Japan for their craftsmanship, character, and history

• Repurposed and reimagined for contemporary interiors

• Limited in number — once gone, it cannot be repeated

Each piece begins a new chapter for a textile that has already lived one life.

Packaging is fully recyclable, with materials chosen to reduce environmental impact wherever possible.
Care

Your vintage silk piece is made from delicate materials and should be handled with care:

• Keep away from direct sunlight to preserve colour

• Reshape gently after use to maintain form

• Store in a cool, dry place when not in use

• Do not machine wash or tumble dry

• Professional cleaning by a specialist is recommended

Made from authentic vintage Japanese silk, each piece may show gentle signs of age. This is part of its character and history.

What does the hexagon pattern on this piece mean?

Kikkou (亀甲)

The hexagon pattern represents longevity, good fortune and protection.

Inspired by the shell of the tortoise, one of Japan's most sacred animals and believed to live ten thousand years.

An ancient motif, kikkou can also be found on Samurai armour designs.

Pine bark diamond pattern on Japanese silk textile (Hishi)

What does the diamond pattern on this piece mean?

Hishi (菱)

The diamond pattern represents longevity, resilience and enduring strength.

Formed from a repeating grid of nested diamond shapes, the pattern echoes the rugged, layered bark of the pine, one of Japan's most auspicious trees, evergreen through every season.

Hishi has been woven into Japanese silks for centuries, often appearing on formal and ceremonial garments as a symbol of strength and long life.

Mid-Shōwa Period

The Shōwa era spanned 1926 to 1989, its name meaning 'enlightened peace' — a period of extraordinary contrast, from wartime turbulence to postwar renaissance. Many of our textiles date from the heart of this era.

The Fukuro Obi

The fukuro obi (袋帯, "bag sash") is the most widely worn of the formal obi, a long elegant sash woven with intricate patterns, tied at the back in the distinctive taiko knot (named for its drum-like shape) that is the hallmark of Japanese formal dress.

This piece is made from a fukuro obi, its silk carrying the beauty of a craft tradition refined over centuries.
