Vintage kimono silk snood

Vintage kimono silk snood

You will love this silk snood not only because it is beautiful but also because of its versatility. You just put it go around your neck twice and it looks perfect without any effort or skill you might need for a scarf.

This beautiful fabric is called sou(all)shibori. Shibori is a traditional Japanese tie-dye technique which makes tiny bumps on a fabric surface. You might be able to see only wee thousands of white circles in the photos but you can feel them bumpy when you touch the fabric. Artisans in the past tied every single bumps by hands. Not to mention it's extremely time consuming work and it needs high level of skills.

Hope you enjoy sustainable luxury with these dreamingly soft silk snoods on your skin.

Dear customers,
Hena Hena's creations are upcycled with vintage silk kimonos which are imported from Japan and they are carefully unpicked by myself. Because of their age of fabrics there could be some flaws like small marks, pinholes, colour fade, old smell etc. but they have incredibly graceful taste that only vintage kimonos have. I hope you enjoy and love the beauty of vintage kimono silks including their histories to be embraced.
Thank you for supporting my small handmade business.
