This listing is for a woman's formal kimono with five family crests. Five-crested kimono represent the highest level of traditional formality and were historically reserved for the most important occasions, including weddings, formal ceremonies, and other significant events.

Like fragments of an ancient treasure, richly detailed floral medallions and geometric motifs appear as if scattered across a soft beige silk ground, highlighted with shimmering gold accents. The broken-pattern composition creates a striking sense of movement while echoing the Japanese appreciation for beauty found in cherished remnants, and the five family crests add an extra touch of formality and prestige.

There are slight signs of age with a few scattered blemishes, see last photo.

If you'd like to display the kimono, we offer hanging rods in a variety of colors (brown, black, natural, white, and red) - see the Add a Display Rod? tab below.

If you'd like to wear or display this kimono with a traditional obi, browse our OBI section. Although it isn't traditional, if you'd like one of our simple cotton sashes to wear with this, we'll choose a complimenting color for (see Add a Sash? above).
