Vintage Japanese Sudare Misu Blind - Showa Era (25D-337-2)

Vintage Japanese Sudare Misu Blind (SKU 25D-337-2)

Finely woven bamboo sudare with ornate metal hooks and silk tassel himo cords

This vintage Japanese sudare misu blind is crafted from closely spaced, slender bamboo slats, creating a refined, almost textile-like surface that softly filters light. The upper edge is finished with a warm orange brocade trim patterned with traditional kikkō and floral motifs, lending the piece a distinctly shōji-like elegance suitable for alcoves, windows, or as a subtle room divider.

Suspended from engraved metal fittings, the blind is operated by rich brown braided himo cords terminating in elaborate decorative knots and long tassels, a detail more often seen in formal interiors. The combination of natural bamboo, textile border, and metal hardware makes this Showa-era sudare an atmospheric accent for Japanese-inspired interiors, tea spaces, or wabi-sabi displays.
