Product Details

Era: World War II period (wartime)
Material: Cotton

This is a homemade Japanese zukin (air-raid hood) crafted during the wartime period. It is made from striped cotton fabric with thick padding, covering the head, neck, and shoulders. The design was intended to protect against sparks and blast during air raids.

This piece is not commercially manufactured; it was made using fabric likely taken from old work garments (noragi) in rural households. It serves as a valuable historical artifact, reflecting the ingenuity and daily life of people living under wartime conditions.

The fabric itself retains a strong presence despite the passage of time, making it appealing as vintage cloth. It can also be reused as a material for remake or handmade projects, allowing you to incorporate its historical background into new creations.

This is a rare piece that combines historical significance and practical usability. Owning this zukin allows you to experience the unique presence of an item that survived its era. A truly special piece for both collectors and creators.

Please note: the item will be shipped compressed, so wrinkles may occur. Thank you for your understanding.
