■■■ Product Details ■■■
【Pure silk, unused】
The condition is particularly free of noticeable stains or dirt and is in very good condition.
Ushikubi Tsumugi, produced in Shiramine Village, Ishikawa Prefecture,
is the least produced of Japan's three major Tsumugi textiles.
Ushikubi Tsumugi is made by directly drawing out the pearl cocoons produced by two silkworms by hand, creating a single thread through a process called "nobe-hiki" which results in a textured grain, beautiful luster, and smooth feel.
The thick, sturdy threads drawn from pearl cocoons increase colorfastness, and
it is also called "Kuginuki Tsumugi" (Nail-pulling Tsumugi).
Creating a single thread from intricately intertwined pearl cocoons requires highly skilled craftsmanship,
which is what preserves the uniqueness of Ushikubi Tsumugi.
Furthermore, a characteristic of Ushikubi Tsumugi is that
it is produced through a consistent process of over 20 steps, from hand-spinning pearl threads from pearl cocoons to weaving.
Richly imbued with the warmth of artisans' hands,
it produces a supple yet firm high-quality fabric.
This is an extremely high-quality, exquisite item.
We are offering it at a low price, so please take this opportunity.
