Hundreds of them, each a small cream crescent, each woven on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Japanese ceremonial silk bed runner set, runner and cushions cut from one obi at the Renaras atelier in Amsterdam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKujaku — the peacock — appears in pairs on this cloth, facing one another inside large ogival roundels among peonies, with smaller floral roundels set between. The ground is champagne gold, filled edge to edge with a fine metallic pattern; the birds are matte silk in coral, teal, lilac and slate, and the eyes of the tails are picked out in silver. The roundel fill is a denser weave than the ground around it, so each pair of birds sits inside a frame that reads as a second, closer texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRenaras designs and reimagines existing Japanese ceremonial silk into contemporary pieces for daily life — this is our mottainai: the bringing of new imagination into a living tradition. Woven once for ceremony, the obi was cut at our Amsterdam atelier into a runner for the foot of the bed, 239 cm of it, falling over both sides of a 180 or 200 cm mattress, with three cushions for the head: one with the peacocks, two in plain champagne silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach cushion closes with an envelope pocket, the runner is backed in plain silk, and no metal touches the silk anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set arrives with the Renaras Passport, a small handmade record of the silk's first life and its transformation, signed and dated in Amsterdam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduct type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBed runner set\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSilk source\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJapanese ceremonial silk, obi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMotif\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKujaku, paired peacocks with peonies in roundels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eColour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChampagne gold with coral, teal, lilac and slate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWeave \/ technique\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupplementary-weft brocade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunner backed in plain silk; cushion covers with envelope closure; no metal touches the silk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRunner 239 × 31 cm; Patterned cushion 37 × 31 cm; Plain cushions two, 36 × 31 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eOrigin of silk\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJapan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eAssembled in\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAmsterdam, Netherlands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCare\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpot clean only; keep out of direct sunlight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eUnrepeatable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eREN-BED-007\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne silk.
