Floral Crest 花紋
The floral crest signals refinement and occasion in the same way real family crests once signalled rank - completeness.
Woven in Japan with gold metallic thread, this cushion began life as a vintage silk Obi - the ceremonial sash worn with a Kimono.
It's been carefully rebuilt into a piece your home can live with, where the light catches the brocade differently by the hour.
The motifs are floral crest, cherry blossom, chrysanthemum and tassel bamboo - for centuries it has stood for completeness, renewal, longevity and luxury high-rank respectively.
This is a one-of-a-kind piece. Once it's gone, this exact pattern won't be repeated.
Specifications
Because each Obi is a vintage, one-of-a-kind piece, we're generally unable to accept returns. But we are always here if you have questions before you buy.
If something arrives that genuinely doesn't match the images and/or description, please reach out and we'll make it right.
