Plaid Boro Cloth, Earth

The Plaid Boro Cloth, Earth is one of our favorite vintage boros and is one of the most unique due to its high quality mending. Boro cloth are a traditional Japanese craft created by up-cycling fabrics over generations. The cloth is created by patching and mending layers of handwoven antique and vintage textile remnants. We think of boro cloth as a conversation, a beautiful work of art created with time. This piece is a one of a kind five panel boro from 1910. The boro has been repaired in multiple locations with the same base fabric, creating a seamless transition between new and old fabrics. The artisan aligned the plaids with near percision. We think of boro cloth as a conversation, a beautiful work of art created with time. Due to the nature of these traditional textiles, there may be areas with wear, staining, and holes. We feel these imperfections help to tell the history of the piece. We recommend using as a throw, bed topper or a table cloth. One of a kind.
