This design is unbalanced vertically and horizontally and gives a subtle color variation. The beauty of these traditional Japanese Kasuri fabric is the technique of the yarn dyes and the metric composition of these yarns combined into a woven fabric. These fabrics are originally for traditional Japanese kimonos, but you can perfectly use them for shirting, trousers, jackets or interior purposes. Please note: according to tradition this fabric is only 39cm wide.
