This listing is for a traditional vintage furisode kimono originally created for a young, unmarried woman.
Thie background of this kimono features diagonal bands in blue and green that are overflowing with florals, leaves, and stems. So many soft pastels fill the petals and leaves which are outlined and embellished with silver leaf or silver paint. Silver couching on featured florals adds even more elegance.
Beautifully done with the yuzen technique - a combination of stencil and brush painting that requires the skill of dozens of artisans.
Unfortunately, as with many light-colored kimono, there are a couple small blemishes on the sleeves, but they are quite minor. See last photos.
Furisode are worn for formal events, such as Seijin-no-hi (Coming of Age Day, sometimes translated as Adults Day) in early January. Furisode are also worn for weddings, recitals, receptions, and other celebrations calling for formal attire. Note the long sleeves (furi = long, sode = sleeves) sometimes called "butterfly sleeves", which flow with grace when she gestures, attracting male attention!
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 Fukuro Style Obi or email us if you don't see one you like. 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 $15 (see Add a Sash? above).
