Boro Futon - Shibori Sparrow and Bamboo An overall stunning boro futon and a highlight from our collection. This futon has several remnants of shibori and katazome handspun indigo cottons in a bold and graphic arrangement. Sparrow and bamboo are common motif pairings in Japanese culture. Sparrows are represented in Japanese folklore as being obsessed with honor - especially in the repaying of debts. Sashiko stitching throughout. We'll let the photos speak for themselves.
