Vintage Bingo Cotton Kasuri – Olive Tortoiseshell

Graphic and rhythmic—an indigo kasuri with structured geometry

This vintage Bingo kasuri features a repeating geometric lattice in pale blue with subtle olive and rust accents. The motif echoes traditional kikko-inspired geometry (tortoiseshell-like forms), interpreted through the kasuri process for a softened, slightly atmospheric edge.

Woven in kimono width and sourced as vintage deadstock, this bolt retains original tags and authenticity marks. The result is structured but never rigid—precise in layout, organic in execution.

Sold in ½ yard increments. Add 1 unit for ½ yard, 2 for 1 yard, 3 for 1½ yards, and so on. Multiple units will be sent as one continuous piece whenever possible.

Kasuri patterns are created by resist-dyeing threads before weaving, allowing motifs to appear slightly blurred at the edges. That gentle shift is not a flaw—it’s the signature of true ikat craftsmanship.Learn more about kasuri and how it’s made here.
