Solid Dark Indigo Blue/Black Slubby Lustrous Dupioni-Like Vintage Kimono Silk from Japan, By the Yard # 301 3/8" Button with stripes and nearly invisibleMid weight silk probably intended for a men's kimono ensemble including pants and kimono. Mid weight, thin, soft, supple and textured with mostly black slubs, it's elegant and lustrous. (To me, breathtaking.) It has a bit of body, a slight sheen and no drape. Back and front are just the same. Sold by the full yard and we'll cut yours in a continuous piece from the vintage, excellent condition, very dark midnight mysterious blue black bolt. Photographs
