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

A quiet gathering unfolds across this haori lining, where finely rendered figures in kimono relax, converse, and move around a large folding screen painted with a monochrome mountain and waterside landscape. The layered scene offers an intimate glimpse into another era, with the screen-within-a-scene adding wonderful visual depth and traditional landscape imagery suggesting tranquility and harmony with nature.

The outer fabric is a simple solid black synthetic(?) blend with no 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.
