Cut and hand-stitched, petal by petal, from a limited supply of vintage and antique 100% silk kimonos and reclaimed silk textiles, sourced and repaired by hand. Once a piece of this fabric is used, it can't be replaced, so no two flowers are ever cut from the same cloth. Even two pieces of the same style will carry their own subtle differences in grain, wear, or shade, the same way no two blossoms in nature are identical. Each piece is one of a kind.
This is slow work, rooted in a family tradition of giving new life to kimonos too worn or damaged to wear, carried forward through our own hands in a New York City studio.
Designed to be worn as a flower necklace (wrap once or twice, depending on length), a hair accessory, or a belt. A single piece, many ways to wear it.

Caring for your accessory
Age and wear are simply part of this textile's history, not a flaw. Slight variation, natural fraying, and softening over time are to be expected and are part of what gives vintage silk its character. Spot clean only when necessary.
Presentation
Each accessory arrives in a handmade paper box, ready to give or keep, made with the same hands and care as the piece inside.
