1900s-1930s Meiji - Early Showa Era, Boro Haori, Workwear, Antique Art Piece
Approximately 100 years ago, during the late Meiji era to the Taisho and early Showa eras (around the 1900s to 1930s), this is a work garment and a happi coat actually worn during farm work. Using indigo-dyed cotton, striped cotton, patterned fabrics, and even vibrant red cloth, this piece is a true embodiment of BORO's essence, meticulously pieced together and repaired from a variety of old fabrics. Countless hand-stitched marks, overlapping patches, tears, and color fading. All of these tell a story of lived time, transcending mere practicality and establishing themselves as an art piece. This is a BORO that has reached the realm of Mingei (folk art), and it exudes an overwhelming presence as an interior decoration, a collectible, or a material for remaking. BORO that displays such a strong atmosphere and color blending rarely appears on the market. A real vintage piece from the Meiji to early Showa eras, aged 100 years. Not just old cloth, but a special piece of museum and gallery class. This is a masterpiece that will undoubtedly resonate with those interested in old fabrics, BORO, Mingei, and BORO art. If you feel a connection, please pick it up and experience this presence! #BORO #BORO #Antique #Meiji #Taisho #EarlyShowa #OldCloth #IndigoDye #HappiCoat #WorkClothes #Mingei #ArtPiece
