Description from the seller
Item Description
This is a vintage furisode, the formal long-sleeved kimono traditionally worn by unmarried women in Japan for special occasions such as coming-of-age ceremonies, weddings, and other celebratory events.
The garment features a striking design composed of overlapping stylized cloud motifs in vivid green, soft grey, ivory, and yellow-gold tones against a creamy white ground. The bold, rhythmic arrangement of the clouds extends across the body and long sleeves, creating a highly decorative and dynamic composition.
Many of the cloud-shaped sections are embellished with intricate gold detailing and a variety of fine traditional geometric patterns. Gold outlines further accentuate the contours of the design, giving the surface a rich and elegant appearance. The combination of bright green and gold with the softer ivory and grey tones creates a distinctive and sophisticated colour palette.
The kimono is fully lined and features the long, flowing sleeves characteristic of the furisode style. The lining is predominantly white, with a soft orange-red gradation along the lower hem, adding a subtle contrast when the garment is viewed from the inside.
As this is a vintage item, there are some small stains and signs of age-related wear in places. Please refer carefully to the photographs for details of the condition.
Size
Height: 157 cm
Width including sleeves: 134 cm
Weight
1,150 g (1.15 kg)
Condition
The silk fabric and printed/dyed motifs remain vivid and well preserved overall. Close inspection of the inner lining area reveals some light discoloration marks, visible as pale spotting on the white/pink under-layer (see detail photo); this appears consistent with age and storage rather than active staining. No tears, moth damage, or major structural issues were observed during visual inspection; no functional testing applies as this is a textile garment. Buyers are encouraged to review all photos closely, as this listing is based on visual inspection only.
