The dark areas of the pattern are all silver leaf, which has discolored over the years. Based on the size and design of the pattern, it looks like a Ming Dynasty fabric imported from overseas, but because of the different weave, it is likely Nishijin-ori from the Edo period. However, it was probably made into a liturgical mat (uchishiki) around the end of the Edo period or the Meiji era, but the fabric itself was woven much earlier. Generally, patterns become smaller as the era progresses. This is not for practical use, but is being offered as an antique fabric for appreciation. Please understand that this item is significantly damaged. Size: Approximately 115 x 88 cm It will be shipped folded. The size is approximate.
