New This Week - Vintage Casual Obi

Click here to purchase or browse.

Casual obi - great for your yukata or informal kimono but also quite cool as a Japanique belt with jeans or a special dress.  There are a few sakiori (rag weave) obi for collectors or decorators and a couple "quick obi" too!  All on sale for their debut week.

Tufenkian's Tibetan rugs speak to us in ways that are purely unique. They tell a story, even though many are not pictorial. Despite their inanimate nature, these rugs have a soul and a sense of being.  We believe the best way to describe their collections is through personification. The Rag Weave Collection is grounded deep in basket-woven roots. At first glance, you think it's straightforward, simple, and safe. Then, you begin to notice the asymmetry of its crisscrossed geometry and playful color variation. Next, you realize how it moves, almost like a gentle breeze blowing through green wheat fields. The pattern is planned yet dynamic and free. As you look closer, each little silk rectangle dances freely and formlessly within the context of the grounded wool foundation. This rug is not perfect. It is not uniform. Yet it is in these imperfections that your spirit is free and at peace.
