Sai-so is the story of a beautiful idea: to take exquisite handmade, handpainted antique kimonos, one of Japan’s greatest gifts to the world, and reanimate (‘Sai-So” means “reconstructed”) these masterworks into contemporary fashion pieces, accessories and interior designs. The epitome of Sai-So’s work is their much-prized bedspread, individually designed and crafted in Berlin, using the textile archive of the company’s uparalleled collection of original Japanese Kimonos.

This special edition backed with rich, heavy duchesse silk, is created exclusively for 20ltd.com and is available in: Ceremonial Black and White kimono with purple or champagne duchesse silk backing and Pastel-Geisha kimono with jade or flamingo red duchesse silk backing. Limited to a total of only 20 editions.

The pieces displayed for sale on 20ltd.com are invariably limited to a very small and collectible number of editions, very often smaller than the brand or designer might previously have contemplated. It is important to make clear however, that, where possible, these very rare items are offered for sale on 20ltd.com at no greater premium than comparable pieces produced in far greater numbers.
