Vintage Japanese Noren - Indigo Cotton | Mon Crest Motif

A vintage Japanese indigo cotton noren.

Two panels joined at the top with a rod sleeve, printed with a repeating family crest (mon) motif in cream on a deep navy ground. The design is bold and graphic, the crest repeated in a regular grid across the full length of both panels.

Noren are traditional Japanese fabric dividers, historically hung in doorways to signal that a business was open, or used within the home to separate interior spaces.
