Naturally Dyed Mosquito Net Weave Wool Oversized Long Stole - Enju Dyed - Happiness-Bringing Yellow

A long stole made of mosquito net weave and wool, naturally dyed a vibrant yellow using the flower buds of Sophora japonica (Enju). While it might appear to have a slight bluish tint in the photos, the actual color is a warm and vivid yellow. As it's naturally dyed, it possesses a depth that avoids being overly flashy. We've dyed it in a color that seems to carry happiness and hope into the winter cold, gently warming the heart. This is a one-of-a-kind piece. Sophora japonica, known as Enju in Japanese or Kai-ka in Chinese, is also famous as a Kampo herb used for its hemostatic, vascular maintenance, and anti-inflammatory properties. You can see large Enju trees at the Tokyo Metropolitan Medicinal Plant Garden. The resulting color is a powerful hue that evokes a sense of protection. The size is approximately 117cm wide by 185cm long (including approximately 5cm fringes on both ends), weighing 146g. Despite its generous size that can envelop your body, it's lightweight. Having been washed multiple times, it has a fluffy, non-prickly texture. It can be lightly hand-washed at home. The mosquito net weave wool uses cotton only for the warp threads, so the parts that touch your skin are enveloped in wool. Its high absorbency also makes it comfortable to wear throughout the seasons. This large stole can be quickly unfurled to be worn as a light outerwear, or conveniently used as a lap blanket.
