About the Kimono Fabric

This miniature parasol is made using silk from a vintage Japanese kimono.

The original kimono features flowing, ribbon-like arrangements of small floral motifs in vivid pink, purple, turquoise blue, and black against an ivory background.

When transformed into a miniature parasol, these colorful floral patterns come together across the canopy, creating a different composition from every angle.

By transforming part of this beautiful textile into a decorative parasol, AKIZAKURA offers another way to appreciate the colors, patterns, and craftsmanship of traditional Japanese clothing.

You can see the original kimono used to create this parasol in the product photos.

A New Life for Kimono

In Japan, kimono fabrics have long been valued and reused in different forms.

Traditionally, kimono could be taken apart, washed, and sewn again. Even when a kimono could no longer be worn, its fabric might be reused for other purposes rather than discarded.

At AKIZAKURA, we continue exploring how these textiles can be appreciated and enjoyed beyond their original purpose.

This miniature parasol brings together the beauty of vintage Japanese silk and the craftsmanship of a Tokyo umbrella maker, creating a small decorative piece that carries a connection to Japanese textile culture.

Through upcycling, we hope to give traditional kimono fabrics a new life while sharing an appreciation for the care, creativity, and craftsmanship behind them.
