"Tropical Blooms" Vintage Kimono
Watercolor Effect
- Ships from NY
- One-of-a-kind
- Sourced from Japan
This kimono whisks us away to warmer climates. The bright, bold, melon-colored blossoms with green-shaded leaves seem like they would be native to Hawaii or perhaps a garden in the Caribbean. Look closely to see that the florals were actually woven into the silk, after which an artisan brush-painted each one, shading by hand to create a watercolor effect.
Orange shading at the lining edges with flip gently as the wearer walks, meant to catch the eye of passers-by.
If you'd like to display the kimono, we offer hanging rods in three colors (brown, black, 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).
For more information on traditional textile techniques used to make this kimono, see videos below.
