It is one silk. The seams are in the loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYosegire — cloth pieced from gathered fragments — began as thrift and became a taste of its own. Here the piecing is woven rather than sewn: panels of unrelated pattern, floral scroll, key-fret, dotted ground and fields of small blossom, butted together in rust, gold, teal, lilac and ochre, each panel carrying its own weight of thread, metallic in some and matte in others. Nothing repeats along the length. The reverse is patterned too, so the runner can be turned.\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, 220 cm of it, falling over both sides of a 160 or 180 cm mattress, with four cushions for the head: two in the patchwork, two in plain gold silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe runner is finished to show both faces; each cushion closes with an envelope pocket, 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\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSilk · Japanese ceremonial silk, obi, patterned on both faces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotif · Yosegire, woven patchwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eColour · Rust, gold, teal, lilac, cream and ochre\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBed runner · 220 × 31 cm \/ 86.6 × 12.2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCushions, patterned · two, 37 × 31 cm \/ 14.6 × 12.2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCushions, plain silk · two, 36 × 31 cm \/ 14.2 × 12.2 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReverse · Patterned silk, reversible\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClosure · Envelope pocket; no metal touches the silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCare · Specialist dry cleaning only; keep from direct sunlight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade · Cut and sewn at the Renaras atelier, Amsterdam\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEdition · One set, unrepeatable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne silk.
