Japanese Textile Fair opened for Ocotober

HOMEWARES and decorations retailer ‘Red Ramia’ in Myrtleford launched its second annual Japanese Textile Fair over the weekend.

The fair will run for the duration of October and everything relating to textiles will be on sale.

The layout of the shelving and displays in the central room were reorganised especially for the occasion to display all of the textiles on offer.

“It’s been great fun so far,” Louise Pike said.

“The Japanese textiles that we have are exquisite; the craftsmanship is amazing, you can tell the kimonos have been hand-sewn and the silks are so beautiful.

“We plan to make it an annual event, following the success of last year’s fair and how well things are going this time around.”

Red Ramia is located at 145 Great Alpine Road, Myrtleford.
