About the Item
Antique Japanese Recycled Saki-Ori Farmer’s Vest
This late 19th C recycled farmer’s vest from northern Japan was strip woven from repurposed cotton scraps in a technique known as saki-ori (to tear
weave), resulting in a beautifully variegated pattern of indigo blues and soft earth tones. Saki-ori is a strong, durable cloth that provided both warmth and comfort during Japan’s winter months, and vests were often favored by farmers for their ease of mobility. This vest was used for many years, mended, and shows signs of wear, but is solidly intact and in good condition for its age.
