house but still allowed air circulation on those warm summer
days.

sashiko curtain, not a print! The noren is TWO vertical panels
stitched together at the top so you can walk through the curtain.
The backside
is a light blue fabric. This
"quadrant" design has four rectangular
areas -- each with a different stitched pattern, which meet
in the center in a circle.

Traditional Formal
Hakama $120
includes airmail shipping from Japan |
|
Brand new and in
the original package, these are a gyoto, or skirt style (undivided)
hakama, which looks the same as the pant style (umanori)
from the outside. The undivided type is preferred because you
wear the hakama over a kimono, which can then hang freely and
evenly underneath. These striped
hakama are meant for formal occasions such as weddings and ceremonies,
and have long ties
and a plastic tab
that tucks into the obi worn beneath it.. Grooms wear these along
with a black kimono and haori as the three-piece "tuxedo"
of Japanese traditional attire. These are new, still in the plastic
casing and with the pleats
still tacked down, and a bit longer than the vintage versions.
Several pairs are available, and the price includes shipping
from Japan (4-7 days, normally). For express shipping, email
us to arrange for additional charges. |
