This listing is a bundle of unfinished kimono yardage that was intended to be made into a formal kimono but was never sewn.
This silk "bolt" was cut into pieces for each part of the kimono ecept that the collar length seems to be missing. Still, there are five pieces, totalling about ten yards: two 3-yard pieces that would have been for left and right sides, two 1-yard pieces for the sleeves, and one 2-yard piece that may have been for the gussets.
The pattern is an abstract urban scene, with chartreuse trees created with brushstrokes to the lavender tower (church spire? sky-scraper?) in the distance. All on a cantalope-colored background. The design appears in several places that would have appears at the front hemline and sleeves.
The inspiring designs, hand work, and the ageless beauty of vintage Japanese textiles adds a unique touch to any art, sewing, or craft project. See video below for inspiration on upcycling vintage Japanese textiles.
