Dusty Rose Batik Vintage Kimono Silk Textured Chirimen Crepe from Japan By the Yard #PA-18 Ikat shapes like cloudsCrinkly chirimen silk, blended, muted colors in the batik, on purplish dusty rose. True batik, the images are a 'karabana' garden, an imaginary flower beloved in both China and Japan. The chirimen texture is quite pronounced, and creates a pattern almost like a dimensional honeycomb. Liquid drape, dry hand, no shine, medium light weight, flowy and supple. Gorgeous! 14" wide and sold by the full yard, we'll cut yours in one piece from the vintage,
