Vintage kimono clutch - Pine medusa
Vintage item
Details & Origin
This vintage clutch is made of traditional Japanese textiles, woven from silk and lamé threads which together give this bag a very particular shine. You can notice the bag changes colours in different lights.
Often produced by Obi artisans, but unlike most Obi fabrics, these accessory textiles (to be used for clutch and shoes) are designed to be strong and resist friction over the years of use.
The inside is made of plain silk satin and the whole clutch is consolidated with a sturdy structure.
The motif represents waves and curls made of thin gold slats and white silk.
Condition
Used. The back looks perfect on the front and on the inside but it is stained on the back (see the last photo). The price is lower due to these stains.
It was found with a small plastic mirror inside a pocket. The mirror isn’t in great condition but it’s a cute object and it’s fairly light so I will send it with the bag. (You can tell me in advance if you don’t wish to have it, and I won’t send it.)
Size
22,5 cm long
12 cm high
4 cm depth
Inner pocket 13 x 6 cm
Front compartment 22 x 9 cm
Opens with a silver snap button.
Sourced in Miyazaki, Kyushu.
