Antique Japanese Boro Indigo Sumi Ink Dyed Crane Clouds Katazome Pillow

Pillow made in my Brooklyn studio from antique (late 19th/early 20th century) Japanese katazome indigo dyed cotton fabric. Each side has a combination of amazing katazome repeating cranes and clouds + sumi ink dyed (sumizone) fabrics. Sashiko style embellishment added by me.

In Japanese culture, cranes represent good fortune and longevity.
