Japanese Vintage Travel Raincoat Boro Indigo Dochu Gappa Edo Folk Textile
Condition:
Used – The neck cord is frayed and cannot be tied. The entire piece shows signs of sun fading, with visible tears, fraying, and general wear. There is an aged, musty smell. The overall condition is not good, but it retains the authentic texture and historical charm characteristic of well-worn Japanese folk textiles.
This is a rare Japanese vintage dochu gappa, a traditional travel raincoat used during the Edo period. Crafted from hand-stitched indigo-dyed fabric, this piece exhibits the boro aesthetic, reflecting the beauty of utilitarian folk textiles and centuries of mending culture in Japan.
The coat features patchwork detailing, faded indigo tones, and visible stitching that tell a story of its long history and use. It embodies the essence of Japanese folk craftsmanship and sustainable textile culture.
Perfect for collectors of Japanese antiques, textile enthusiasts, or as a unique decorative wall display or costume design reference.
