紅型額装　【 Framed Bingata textile ( Okinawa ) 】[TX150]

戦前の、今から100年程前の紅型とみています。模様は雪輪紋様に松竹梅。江戸時代に大和(本土）から流入した染物に影響を受けた伝統的な図柄ですが、梅を黄色く染めたり雪輪が五辺になっていたりと沖縄ならではの豊かな創造性が見られます。色も実に多彩。白を抜いて水色に染め上げ、その上に赤、紫、緑、黄色などの色が型染されており、色の重なりやぼかしの技法も見ることが出来ます。

額装されているため、上質なインテリアとして日常に彩りを添えられる数少ない品物です。

This framed Bingata textile from Okinawa is estimated to be around 100 years old, dating back to the pre-war period. The design features traditional motifs such as snowflake patterns combined with pine, bamboo, and plum blossoms, reflecting the influence of dyeing techniques introduced from mainland Japan during the Edo period. However, the piece distinctly showcases Okinawa’s rich creativity, evident in the yellow-dyed plum blossoms and the pentagonal shape of the snowflakes, which diverge from conventional forms. The color palette is remarkably diverse, with a pale blue background achieved by removing white areas, overlaid with vibrant hues of red, purple, green, and yellow. The textile demonstrates sophisticated layering and gradation techniques, creating depth and subtle transitions between colors. Framed, this piece not only preserves a significant cultural heritage but also serves as a refined and unique decorative element, adding historical and artistic value to any contemporary interior setting.
