This listing is for a vintage Japanese child's kimono meant for a little boy. These are rarely worn these days but were commonly used as robes at home up until the 1950s in urban Japan and might still be seen today in rural villages. It is padded for warmth, so children sometimes slept wrapped in these comfy robes.
There are a few elements of this design that make us smile - notably, the decorate pair of eggplants encircled like a family crest! (Gourds are a similar shape and are considered lucky, but we are pretty sure these are eggplants!) You'll also see Mt. Fuji framed in a circle, hawks, pine boughs, and a lucky ""money pouch". Broad blue and gold bands in the background actually form the "pine lozenge" motif - also considered auspicious.
It is still wearable for a toddler, but please check the measurements - they run small. A vintage boy's kimono does make fun display pieces in a child's room or anywhere a touch of Japanese decor would liven up the room.
Children's kimono come with two long ties sewn to each side of the front collar. The right-side tie would be threaded behind the left side, through the opening under the arm, around the back, and tied with the tie from the left side. If you would prefer a casual sash to tie the kimono closed, we offer simple cotton versions as an add-on option.
We also offer display rods but only in 30" widths (which is too short for this item) or 60" widths (which may be too long unless you have something else to display alongside of it). If you would like a custom-width rod, email us and we can direct you to a source.
