Hitoe Ro Kimono

Elegant leaves and branches of varying shades of blue carry glistening blossoms of silver, ivory, and pink across this kimono's ivory sky. The ribbed, open weave of this garment encourages creative layering, as the color of whatever's worn beneath shows through.


Condition: In very good with only a few pale yellow specks in a couple of places.

Age Mid to late 20th c.
Technique Hand-dye and accents of silver couching
Material Silk
Texture Slightly crisp sheer weave. Lightweight for easy layering.

Width (wrist to wrist) 127 | Length 160 | Length of sleeve 48.3 | Width of Back 59.7 (this is the original size, the kimono has been altered since). Still is a little too short for me.
