As the name suggests, it is a woven fabric made by mixing the down of bracken, a type of wild vegetable, with cotton to make yarn. The new shoots of bracken, wrapped in cotton, have a unique natural color. Because the down of bracken can only be harvested in limited quantities during a limited time, not much Zemai Tsumugi can be produced annually. It is a unique item that is said to be a tsumugi that even kimono connoisseurs who have worn out Yūki Tsumugi and Ōshima Tsumugi will reach for. The soft, warm feel and the striped patterns often seen in plant-derived fabrics are proof of the high quality that has been painstakingly created. We hope you will take this masterpiece in your hands, along with its texture. This is a beautiful item with little signs of use. -------------------------------------------------- We also have various other kimonos and obi for sale. #jojoKimono (in Japanese) would be appreciated. #jojoKimonoFukuroobi (in Japanese) #ZemaiTsumugi (in Japanese) ku-
