MIKAFleur Noren

A Noren is a traditional Japanese fabric divider hung between rooms, on walls, in doorways, or in windows. They are designed to be split down the middle, allowing people to pass through easily while still providing a sense of privacy and separation between spaces.

No, the MIKAFleur Noren does not include a tension rod or hanging hardware. It features a rod pocket header, so you will need to purchase a standard tension rod or curtain rod separately to install it.

The linen is sheer, meaning it will filter light rather than block it completely. It creates a soft, diffused glow in the room while maintaining a sense of privacy, making it ideal for softening doorways or windows without darkening the space.

Because this piece is handcrafted using the traditional katazome dyeing technique, we recommend gentle hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the design. Always air dry flat and avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.

The Noren measures 34 inches wide by 59 inches high. It is designed to fit most standard interior doorways, but we recommend measuring your specific door frame width and height before purchasing to ensure the desired coverage.

Katazome is a traditional Japanese stencil-dyeing method. Artisans apply a rice paste resist through a stencil onto the fabric before dyeing, which creates the crisp, intricate patterns characteristic of authentic Japanese textiles.
