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

A striking landscape unfolds across the lining, with snow-capped Mount Fuji rising through clouds inside an open fan, surrounded by windswept pines, while a powerful hawk surveys waves and rocky branches nearby. Painted in restrained shades of black, gray, cream, and gold, the imagery is especially auspicious: Fuji and the hawk are the first two symbols in the traditional "First Dream" trio associated with good fortune, while evergreen pine represents longevity and endurance.

The understated black outer silk is finished with five white mokko (melon) family crests, one of Japan's major traditional crest designs.

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.
