This listing is for a woman's tomesode kimono. See below for more information on these formal kimono.

Soaring with dramatic elegance, a flock of graceful cranes glide across a glowing orange sky above silhouetted pines, creating a scene filled with movement and contrast. Cranes symbolize longevity, fidelity, and good fortune, making this bold composition especially meaningful, while the five paulownia family crests reflect the kimono's highest level of formality. Look closely to see the embroidered accents.

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).

Tomesode are among the most formal styles of kimono, traditionally worn by the mother of the bride or groom and other close family members at weddings. They typically feature one, three, or five family crests, with an elegant design concentrated along the lower hem.  See the video below for more!
