Here large diamonds outlined in vermilion enclose roundels of paired birds, wings fanned, facing one another above a small crest; the diamonds are filled with flat gold, and within a single unit the ground changes four times, chevron, lozenge, hexagon and dot. The ornament is denser than the figure. The birds, in matte orange and white, are the only things on the cloth that are not a grid.\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, 198 cm of it, falling over both sides of a 140 or 160 cm mattress, with four cushions for the head: two carrying the diamonds, two in plain champagne-gold 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\u003eYūsoku court pattern, diamonds with paired birds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eColour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePale gold with vermilion and white\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 198 × 31 cm; Plain cushions two, 37 × 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-013\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne silk.
