Authentic Japanese Kimono | Vintage | Furisode | Silk Crape Kanagoma Embroidery

👘 This furisode kimono patterned with various plants including chrysanthemum, tangerine, and, Nadeshiko — the flower that culturally represents Japanese females — is made of natural silk. 🎨 This piece has Kanagoma embroidery, which is what you can see from the second picture. The artist has to embroider the thick golden thread onto the edge of the patterns, which is a highly labour-intensive process. 🧵 Crape (or “chirimen” in Japanese) refers to a traditional Japanese weaving technique where the weft thread is tighter than the warp thread during weaving process, resulting in the unique texture as you can see from the close-up pictures. 👠The style of this kimono is called Furisode, a formal wear that girls in Japan wear to their adulthood ceremony. This is the highest grade of kimono for unmarried women. ⚠️ I cannot find any spots. 🪡 This is in great condition for wearing. You can for sure take lots of beautiful photos in it. 📏For measures, please refer to the last photo Who am I: a Toronto-based kimono enthusiast 👘🍁🇨🇦
