Antique Kimono Collection |
|
Every tie in this collection has been created from antique Kimono silk. I purchase silk pieces in Japan from kimonos that have been de-constructed. When I get the pieces, they frequently have pieces of thread still in them. I use a variety of weights and textures of Japanese silk for my ties. All of the silk I have purchased to date for this collection comes from the twentieth century, with most of the vintages from the 30s, 40s, and 50s.
