This is an exceptionally rare Tanba-fu patchwork boro textile.
Tamba-fu itself is a scarce Japanese folk textile, traditionally handwoven in limited quantities.
Finding a boro made from Tanba-fu—used, repaired, and patched through daily life—is even more extraordinary.
This piece features calm indigo tones characteristic of Tamba-fu, combined with carefully hand-stitched patches added over time for practical use.
It was not created as decoration, but as a necessity—resulting in an authentic beauty born from everyday life.
There are minor stains and signs of age consistent with its history, yet the overall condition is very good, and the fabric remains strong and stable.
Authentic Tamba-fu handwoven cloth
One-of-a-kind historical textile
Ideal for collectors of Japanese folk art, boro, and antique textiles
Perfect for display as wall art, study material, or interior accent.
