Oriental Pink Sakura Koinobori Fish Scale Pattern Playing Cards

Play Bridge with your friends with these playing cards that are covered with traditional sakura pink Japanese fish scale design. A combination of light and hot pink. A traditional Japanese fish scale seamless pattern in traditional Japanese colours. One of which is sakura. It is a simple abstract design of fish scale you see a lot in Japanese prints. This kind of pattern is often used on fabric for yukata or a jinbei, traditional Japanese clothes for in the hot summer months.But I have seen the pattern also those typical Japanese windsocks, the Koinobori. When you think of this type of fabric, resist dyeing comes to mind. In Japan vintage techniques are roketsuzome with wax, katazome, yuzen and tsutsgaki with rice paste. A favourite method of applying paste is by means of a stencil.
