This is a women's silk kimono which has glamorous oriental red, greyish blue, navy blue and gold feather like motif design in stylish silvery grey. It has an enchanting classic floral jacquard design. The lapel is bachi-eri (folded lapel).

It would be stunning to use as a dress and also display as a wonderful piece of art for a room. Birds of a Feather is a vibrant and attractive antique piece.

This kimono is quite long. Please check the measurement. You may need to have a bit of tuck at your waist with this length of kimono unless you are very tall. You can adjust the length by using a koshihimo (a cord tied around the waist of a womans kimono to hold it in place). Koshihimo is available for £4. Please ask for more details.

It has certain wear and flaws including marks and small holes around the right shoulder but it is such a fabulous antique piece! Please check the detail photos and the 'Extra Images'.

Note: This kimono does not come with a belt. If you would like one, please check my casual obi collection on casual-obi-belt.html. Prices start from £7 or £8 for a belt.
