(In regular weaving, the weft thread passes over and under the warp thread). When brocades are woven, special threads are transfixed in between the weft over warp.\u003cbr\u003eThis blouse is made from handspun and handwoven natural silk.\u003cbr\u003eFrom the harvest to the yarn to the weave, the material is made by hand without the use of machines, and without electricity. It is a textile that holds the story of natural and economic sustainability, community and ancient craft.\u003cbr\u003eHandwork naturally results in variations. We cherish these imperfections for their human touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hartwick Atelier","offers":[{"title":"XS","offer_id":67894761783595,"sku":"HW-TOKYO-030-XS","price":754.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"S","offer_id":67894761816363,"sku":"HW-TOKYO-030-S","price":754.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"M","offer_id":67894761849131,"sku":"HW-TOKYO-030-M","price":754.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"L","offer_id":67894761881899,"sku":"HW-TOKYO-030-L","price":754.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL","offer_id":67894761914667,"sku":"HW-TOKYO-030-XL","price":754.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0894\/7492\/4843\/files\/040HARTWICK_HANDWOVEN_TOKYO_SHIRT_SILK_ZARI4R1A3336.webp?v=1793015900","url":"https:\/\/www.hartwickatelier.com\/en-intl\/products\/tokyo-dark-golden-brocade","provider":"HARTWICK ATELIER","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
