金襴とは

金襴(きんらん)とは
「金襴」とは従来、糸に金箔を巻きつけた金糸や細く切った金箔を織り込み、紋様を顕わした布地を指します。
織物の中でも特に豪華で黄金色に輝く豪奢な文様は、数ある高貴な布地の中でも最高の位に入る織物です。
京都西陣で織られるようになったのは江戸時代、文禄元年(1592年)から。
多くの職人によって改良が続けられ、現在の「西陣織金襴」ができるに至りました。
一般的には人形衣装(雛人形など)、能衣装、袈裟、仏具関連用品、表装(掛け軸)などに用いられています。
現在では合繊が取り入れられるようになり、金糸を使用しないものを含め「金襴」という呼び名が定着しています。
まるで生地へ刺繍を施したような、豪華で華やかな立体感が特徴です。
