The reverse is made from a designer luxury cotton velvet in plum/purple.

The scene depicts a bridge near maple and pine trees (matsu). Many figures from the past populate the scene all wearing historical dress. We will send you a free Hunted and Stuffed guide to symbols in Japanese textiles with every order.
