This is a kimono made from authentic Ryukyu Haebaru Hanaori, a traditional craft produced mainly in Haebaru Town, Shimajiri District, Okinawa Prefecture. Hanaori, said to have been introduced from the south around the 15th century, exists in various parts of Okinawa. In the past, it was used by the Ryukyu Dynasty, and it was such a luxurious and elaborate textile that commoners were forbidden to wear it except during festivals. Among them, there is a theory that the ones woven in Haebaru, which is close to the Shuri dynasty, are the true royal kimonos, and Haebaru Hanaori is particularly popular among Ryukyu textiles. It is designated as a traditional craft of Okinawa Prefecture because it is made by hand and uses traditional techniques and materials that have been used for over 100 years. The characteristic of Haebaru Hanaori is the three-dimensional, flower-like embroidered patterns. The intricate designs are a skill that can only be achieved by artisans who have accumulated years of training and experience, and you can feel the warmth of handwork. This item comes with a certification label, the Okinawa Prefecture Traditional Craft Certification, and the Okinawa Prefecture Textile Inspection Certification.
