Authentic indigo patchwork and hand sashiko stitching define this vintage Japanese boro fabric piece, cut from a traditional mosquito net woven in 100% hemp.

As a used item, it shows visible signs of age: frayed edges, worn patches, and the kind of wear that gives it genuine historical character. Japanese boro reflects a long tradition of mending and reusing textiles, turning everyday utilitarian fabrics into lasting works of art.
