This is a very beautiful *tsukesage* (semi-formal kimono) by dyeing and weaving artist "Kyoko Matsuo." The elegant, lustrous off-white (slightly yellowish white) *tsumugi* silk fabric features a subtle *dan-noshi* pattern in pale silver-gray, with a beautiful diamond-weave *uki-ori* (floating weave). The diamond-weave *uki-ori* pattern, which changes its appearance with the wearer's movements, is elegant. This is an exquisite piece that exudes a sense of refinement with its gentle colors. (The obi 504mn1 and other accessories in the images are for reference only and are not included with this item). Ms. Matsuo's kimonos utilize the texture of the threads and her exceptional technique to create works that subtly captivate the viewer. This is a masterpiece filled with the artist's dedication to dyeing and weaving. Comes with the "Aoyama Yagi" *tatōgami* (kimono wrapping paper) as pictured. There is some color unevenness on the *hakkake* (lining of the lower part of the kimono) and a very faint, small stain on the *dōura* (lining of the body), but it is barely noticeable unless you look closely. There are some areas where unrefined threads are mixed in with the off-white fabric, but we hope you will enjoy this as part of the fabric's character. Otherwise, there is no significant damage, and it is a very beautiful item in excellent condition with the basting threads still attached. 【Material】Silk 【Color】Off-white 【Size】裄 (裄丈, shoulder to wrist): 66.6cm, 丈 (身丈, length from shoulder): 161cm, 袖幅 (sleeve width): 34.4cm, 袖丈 (sleeve length): 49.5cm, 前幅 (front width): 22.6cm, 後幅 (back width): 28.1cm, 裄の縫込み (shoulder seam allowance) 身頃側 (body side): 3.5cm, お袖側 (sleeve side): 2.5cm, 内揚げ幅 (hem allowance): 4.7cm How about this high-quality piece by an artist who studied under Yanagi Sōetsu and Yanagi Muneyoshi, who established the foundation of modern dyeing and weaving?
