The Momiji Cascade — Japanese Ceremonial Silk Lumbar Pillow, Maple Leaf in Amber and Persimmon
Price £297
A lumbar pillow cover in Japanese ceremonial silk, cut from a Nishijin fukuro obi (袋帯): momiji (紅葉, maple) turning across a kaki-iro persimmon-amber ground, in the spirit of momiji-gari. Envelope-pocket back, no metal against the silk; 50 × 31 cm. For warm autumn interiors. Spot clean only. Unrepeatable, finished at the Renaras atelier, Amsterdam. Momiji. The turning of the leaves. The Japanese tradition of momiji-gari — attending to beauty in its moment of maximum intensity and imminent disappearance, carried here across an amber silk ground. The ground is kaki-iro — the colour the Japanese call persimmon. Across it, large-scale momiji maple leaves cascade in pink-blush and sage-green, joined by ume plum blossoms in cream and burnished gold. The gold and silver kinshi thread sits dense at the floral centres, each leaf rendered at the scale of a painting rather than a pattern. The amber gives the composition its warmth. The cascading leaves give it its rhythm. A pillow for charcoal sofas, cream daybeds, minimalist rooms that welcome one deliberate season — quiet beauty for ordinary moments, gathered around a shared table. The face is the original obi silk. The reverse is finished in vivid persimmon-orange satin — bold enough to change the room when turned. Envelope pocket closure. No metal touches the visible silk.
