Garden of Smoke and Gold

"She walked where incense curled through cedar leaves,
where petals pressed in pages of silk.
Gold lay sleeping on her skin —
a garden wrapped in hush and flame."

Garden of Smoke and Gold is a corset sculpted from ancient silk, plucked from the folds of an antique Japanese obi. Its surface holds a quiet wealth — chrysanthemums and bamboo framed in fan-like lattices, touched with bronze, ochre, and shadowed jade. The silk rustles like parchment and drapes like memory. Gold fringe trims the upper edge, and the hem is curved and winged, like the mouth of a ceremonial vessel.

PRICE

This piece was crafted from a true antique obi — a textile meant to be seen but not cut, until now. Its silk has the crackle and weight of history, requiring care, reverence, and craftsmanship to reshape. Its price reflects the rarity of the material, the intricacy of its form, and the singular nature of its voice.
