This captivating print is a blend of the classic and the fanciful (just like all good stories), and was created using art spanning more than three centuries.
We layered two stunning 18th century ink-on-silk hanging scrolls from Japan painted with wild plum blossoms, peach trees, magpies, and a luminous moon to create this design, then added other whimsical elements — including antique illustrations of wild deer, birds, and cranes.
The printed trim comes from French silk embroidery fragments from the early 1800’s, and the charming pattern on the sleeves is a replica of block-printed French paper from the same era.
100% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as wood and bamboo).
Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry.
Measurements: length 118cm, width 78 cm (across back, underarm to underarm).
