Item Details

A lumbar pillow cover in Japanese ceremonial silk, cut from a Nishijin fukuro obi (袋帯): yūsoku-mon (有職, the codified patterns of the imperial court — karakusa, sayagata, hanabishi) in diagonal bands across coral silk. Envelope-pocket back, no metal against the silk; 50 × 31 cm (also 36 × 31 cm). For warm, heraldic interiors. Spot clean only. Unrepeatable, finished at the Renaras atelier, Amsterdam.


Yūsoku-mon. The patterns of the imperial court. The codified textile vocabulary of the Japanese imperial court — karakusa, sayagata, hanabishi — woven here in diagonal bands across coral silk.


Across a warm coral-terracotta silk ground, diagonal bands of different classical textile patterns cross and overlap at dynamic angles: karakusa arabesque scrollwork in burnished gold, sayagata key-fret geometry in teal and cerulean, hanabishi floral crests in sage-green and crimson. The effect is kaleidoscopic — a textile that reveals different layers depending on where the eye rests. The coral gives the composition its warmth. The crossing bands give it its conversation.


A pillow for navy sofas, cream linen daybeds, Parisian rooms with herringbone parquet — quiet beauty for ordinary moments, gathered around a shared table.


The face carries the court pattern composition. The reverse is finished in the obi's original gold satin with a refined sayagata diamond weave. Envelope pocket closure. No metal touches the visible silk.
