They are woven in silk and dyed with vegetable dyes. As with all things Japanese they possess an unassuming, quietly restrained beauty.

ReplyDeleteNeki, thanks for posting these pieces and the wabi-sabi article. My comprehension of all that was being said there is sadly lacking. I'll have to try re-read in the morning. But right now I'm thankful to just be taking in some of the beauty of these weavings.
