Ginger Jar

Our Ginger Jar is decorated with Wisteria (fuji). Wisteria originally grew wild in the mountains of Japan. Growing in the wild it winds itself around trees. Domesticated it grows on trellis and is easily contained. When it blooms it form cascades of beautiful purple flowers. If you travel through the South of our country, in the springtime, where Wisteria was planted in what is now abandoned home places, the Wisteria will cover an extensive area of trees. It is a beautiful sight to behold.

Our Jar with its "tamed" Wisteria is worked in Rozashi silks, brocade, and metallic threads. The purples and blue are true to the color palette of the Heian period in Japan.

The kit comes complete with all threads, ro attached to the frame, an illustrated instruction booklet, a needle and the sticking paste.
