This vibrant textile originates from Japan’s late Showa period (1960–1980) and is a scholarly example of the exuberant, multi-colored botanical prints that characterized mid-to-late 20th-century fashion. Measuring 14 inches by 60 inches (36 cm x 152 cm), the panel is crafted from a vintage silk base with a chirimen-like pebbly texture in a sophisticated palette of white and tan. This high-quality fabric remains in excellent condition, offering a lovely handfeel and a great drape.

The visual narrative is a dense, all-over "garden" composition featuring a variety of seasonal blossoms and scrolling foliage. The floral elements are rendered in a striking array of jewel-toned shades, including deep rose, teal, mustard yellow, and forest green, which pop against the neutral substrate. This specific style of dense, interlocking organic forms reflects the era's move toward maximalist patterns that drew inspiration from both traditional Japanese bingata stenciling and Western Art Nouveau aesthetics.
