SPOTLIGHT SERIES: THE SPOONBILL AND JINDO

 This design forms part of The Noh Playbook collection, originally released in Spring/Summer 2019.

This collection references the costumes, masks and plays of ancient Japanese Noh theatre, alongside antique woodblock prints, kimono patterns and tales from folklore. The beautifully intricate hand-carved animal artwork found on inros (small wooden or ivory boxes used as an external ‘pocket’ tucked under an obi) and netsukes (the tiny wooden or ivory bead to stop the inro slipping through) also played a large part.
