I am offering at a bargain price, items that my mother, a Japanese dancer, my wife, and my younger sister no longer wear. These are unused items purchased from a kimono shop due to business relationships. Made by "Sotomura Shoji" in Shijo, Kyoto. Important Intangible Cultural Property, Honba Yuki-Tsumugi "Yu" (Knot) Ground Loom, Hon-Ai Dyeing, Vertical and Weft Silk Hand-Spun Yarn "100 Kikkou So-Kasuri Weave" Kasuri Binding, Hand Loom Weaving. While chemical dyes are used in Hon-Yuki, this is a masterpiece of "Ai-Yuki" (Indigo Yuki) dyed with expensive Hon-Ai (natural indigo) dyeing. It is a Hon-Yuki item with 100 Kikkou (turtle shell pattern) total Kikkou Kasuri weave, with a scattered pattern in So-Kasuri and hand-loom weaving. The cocoons of silkworms are boiled and softened, then spread out, and hand-spun yarn is used for both the warp and weft. It is soft, warm because it contains a lot of air, and a very comfortable and gentle material. By spinning the yarn from this silk floss by hand, the highest quality yarn is created without compromising the quality of the material. It is said that only Honba Yuki-Tsumugi uses hand-spun yarn for both warp and weft. The unique lightness, luster, and texture, and the use of hand-spun yarn from high-quality cocoons, make it wrinkle-resistant and light despite its thickness. In terms of certification, the ranking is "Yu" (Knot), "Ishige," and "Tsumugi," which is the reason for its highest grade. Yuki-Tsumugi becomes softer and more familiar the more it is "worn," and it becomes more familiar to the body after repeated washing and stretching two or three times. It is said that it can be passed down for three generations, and I believe this is why it is considered the highest peak among Tsumugi.
