Remnant, Amethyst 'Shooting Stars',Textural Slubby Dusty Purple Vintage Kimono Silk from Japan, 1 Yard Piece #129

Very slubby, with lots of natural texture and thicker/thinner, lighter/darker silk fibers, created mainly from dusty rose and raisin. The result is a muted, rich amethyst color, with lots of lengthwise, pastel dusty rose shooting-star-like streaks in the weave, lighter and darker. BUT, The darker streaks and slubs are mostly across the width, and the rows 'bow' in an arc. The grain is off; you can see it in the photos.  But this silk's natural beauty is so great that it may be okay with you. Thin and mid-weight, but very crisp and stable, with no shine and lots of body and bounce. We gently machine washed a swatch in cool water and machine dried on low heat, and it became supple and soft, a bit drapey, luscious, with no color change and no crispness left at all;  a sueded, quite softened version of itself.  14" wide and one yard long, the last of the beautiful condition, never used vintage bolt. 100% Silk. Japan. 

The color is consistent dusty amethyst; if any of the photos make the color look blotchy or discolored, please forgive us; it's just the camera struggling with the many layers, colors and textures, in the light.
