Vintage Silk Kimono - Tokyo Tearoom

Description

Introducing our collection of vintage sari silk kimonos - handmade, one-of-a-kind, fair trade, and sustainable. Each kimono is crafted from repurposed sari silk, giving it a unique and colourful look that is sure to turn heads.

Our artisans carefully select each piece of silk and transform it into a kimono, ensuring that every garment is truly one-of-a-kind. The vintage nature of the silk also adds a touch of history and character to the piece, making it a timeless addition to any wardrobe.

In addition to their stunning aesthetic, our kimonos are also made with sustainability and fair trade practices in mind. By using repurposed silk, we are reducing waste and giving new life to an otherwise discarded material. We also work directly with our artisans, ensuring that they are paid fairly for their work and that the production process is environmentally responsible.

Not only will you look and feel great in our vintage sari silk kimonos, but you can also feel good about supporting a sustainable and ethical product. Why not add a touch of bohemian flair to your wardrobe with our handmade kimonos?
