This panel is a wonderful 1920's fine Gauze Silk, woven Ikat style it retains some crispness & glows with rich colour. The background is a lovely Raspberrywith dark ivory bands of spiral patterns & floral motifs, the Floral motifs contain a dragonfly each, 2 are in shades of Turquoise & the third is Apple Green & turquoise with a touch of Dove grey detailing. For scale, each dragonfly is about 10 inches across & absolutely beautiful. The condition of the fabric is very good, no issues l can see, t is the uniform patination you would expect from a fabric this age & which in no way detracts from the attractiveness of the panel - in fact it enhances it & gives it its authenticity. It measures 14 ins wide & 45 ins long. A fabulous early silk in great condition & again, l have very little of this to list so dont miss it. Most of my fabrics are sourced from Japan for my own handicraft projects & l sell my excess, so if you see one you like, please bid - it may be the only piece like it l ever list! I do not pretend to be an expert, l am an enthusiast with a love of fabric and want my customers to be happy with their purchase - l would never deliberately mislead. I describe to the best of my ability & am quite 'picky' about pointing out even minor flaws so no nasty surprises. All my fabrics are Vintage and most are taken from Vintage Kimono'
