Because both faces feature their own unique, intricate arrangement of fabrics, this versatile piece is completely reversible and suitable for double-sided display. This item features a masterful expression of monochrome tonal depth. The front side showcases an incredibly sophisticated, abstract layout of overlapping solid indigo patches ranging from deep midnight hues to washed, sun-faded slate-blues, while the reverse reveals a striking composition punctuated by bold, graphic, geometric resist-dyed patterns that stand out beautifully against the dark indigo ground.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Natural Dyes\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% Handwoven, homespun, and hand-stitched antique cotton, indigo fabrics. Through decades of careful handling, natural ageing, and repeated washings, the textile has evolved a magnificent, complex patina. The entire surface is densely bound by rows of traditional hand-stitched Sashiko with original indigo dyed threads, which creates an extraordinary, heavily puckered, and rippled tactile texture across both faces.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eApprox Size: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e190 x 162cm \/ 74.8 x 63.8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e4.7kg\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"n6owBd awi2gc\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Antique Character\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs an authentic antique artifact, this piece carries the beautiful imprints of its previous life.
