N° 44 crushed bloom wraparound accessory - yuki white - L

A singular botanical study featuring a hand-sculpted flower, hand-sewn onto a length of grosgrain ribbon.  Made from preserved vintage silk kimonos and reclaimed archival textiles. 

Hand-crushed silk flowers with creased, crumpled petals.  Stitched with pure silk thread, the piece reveals subtle variations in tone, natural slubs, and raw-edge finishes.

I work without industrial factory molds or patterns, cutting and shaping every petal one by one. This slow, labor-intensive work carries forward a family tradition of giving damaged historical textiles new life.  

These preserved textiles exist in small, unrepeatable lengths. Some fabrics yield a limited run; others yield only a single flower, and once a specific fabric is used, it can never be replaced. Subtle shifts in grain, aged patina, and organic drape ensure that every piece remains singular.

Details & Craft

• Process: Each petal is cut, hand-sculpted, and hand-stitched one by one in my New York Studio; zero machine stamping.

• Finish: Raw edge detailing throughout, celebrating the natural fraying and softening of aging silk. 

• Construction: Flowers are hand-sewn onto grosgrain ribbon; the strand can be worn as a necklace (wrap once or twice depending on length), tied into hair, or wrapped around as a belt. 

Dimensions 

• Total length: 70"

• Each flower measures 6" x 6" (size L) 

Edition: 1/1 Singular Object

Material Care

Aged wear and subtle shifts in texture are part of the silk's history, not a defect.  Slight fraying over time is a natural characteristic of raw-edge vintage textiles.  Spot clean only when necessary, and gently reshape the petals by hand as needed.
