This is a vintage kimono jacket, called a haori, made for a man. Learn more about this type of garment below. 

A story unfolds across this remarkable woven lining divided into three scenic panels: a Japanese castle framed by pine, a procession of travelers moving beneath towering trees, and figures crossing an elegant bridge. The imagery evokes the atmosphere of an Edo-period journey or daimyo procession, while woven hollyhock crests add another historical note with its motif famously associated with the Tokugawa shogunate.

The outer jacket is classic black silk finished with five wisteria family crests.

The lining of men's haori jackets often depict a scene or motif that was of special interest to the original owner. We often display these jackets inside out to show the lining, and they could be worn this way - inside out - as well; a style that is becoming trendy among Japanese youth. See video below for how haori are worn these days.

If you need a display rod to hang your purchase, we offer 60" wooden rods - see tab below.
