Sakae – Pink Gradation Japanese Silk Scarf

Our scarves are from a Japanese Kimono wiever of Kyoto, Japan.  The north of Kyoto is famous for high quality silk fabric which is plainly woven and created with a special dying technique that has a history of more than 250 years.   It is also renowned for Chirimen (crape) material.  These scarves are woven in the same way as a Kimono using Japanese traditional methods.  The scarves are actually used when wearing a Kimono as an accessory with the Obi (a wide sash to bind a Kimono) and it is shown a little above the Obi.

This scarf features beautiful gradation of cherry blossom pink.  It is made very light for the use during summer.  Great accent for a white summer dress.
