This is a very unusual dyed Oshima Tsumugi, featuring a playful design of playing card suit marks against a background of firefly gradation that softly emerges in the light on a pink beige ground with a hint of purple. With a predominantly plain field and the suit marks arranged subtly and elegantly, it gives a restrained yet impressive sense of gorgeousness. I think it will be a great conversation starter (*´꒳`*) This piece combines a modern sensibility with the high quality of Japanese aesthetics. It is recommended for outings, tea ceremonies, and theater visits. Although it has a "tsukesage" pattern, it's not overly formal, so please feel free to wear it casually♪ The "hakkake" (lining of the lower part of the garment) is the same color as the main fabric, and has the texture of dyed Oshima, but the surface has a fine crepe finish, which might make you think it's a thin "Omeshi" (a type of silk fabric) at first glance. I'm not sure what kind of processing it has undergone, but it's a color that will flatter adult women and can be worn without feeling self-conscious. There is a very faint collar line, but it has been worn very little and there are no noticeable damages. There are areas where the color has been layered on what looks like weaving irregularities, but it's only noticeable if you look closely, so it shouldn't affect wearability. Please check the images. Other minor stains and blemishes may be overlooked. Please purchase with an understanding of the used condition! ⸻ 【Product Details】 • Material: Pure silk (dyed Oshima Tsumugi) • Pattern: Firefly gradation, playing card (suit mark) pattern • Ground color: Greige • Construction: Double-layered • Condition: Generally good The front width is a generous size. 【Dimensions】 Sleeve-to-sleeve length: 164cm 裄丈 (Yuki length): 67cm Sleeve length: 48cm Front width: 26.5cm Back width: 30cm The price is for the kimono alone, for coordination with obi and accessories.
