This listing is for a vintage, formal, Japanese kimono
called a tomesode. Tomesode (sometimes called kurosode or "Mother of the
Bride" kimono) are typically reserved for very formal occasions, such as
weddings or performances. There are always at least three - but usually five -
family crests on the upper section (one at the neck, one on the back of each
sleeve, and one on each side of the collar) and an elegant design that
stretches across the entire hemline, with more of the image in the front, where
it would be seen best.
This tomesode featurs a bright gold pine bough motif with gold edging to each
bough. A white fence provides perspective and a brown hillock at the
front hem grounds the scene.
It's slightly unique to have patterning appear on the sleeves and across the
collar of a tomesode - and we have never seen the patterning extend behind a
family crest - so this is quite unusual.
The family crest is an elaborate design sometimes called "melon" that
includes a bellflower in a wisteria wreath.
