"A wonderful premonition! What comes into view beyond individuality," a beautiful visiting kimono featuring animal sarasa... a wide-sized item. The beauty of the intricate sarasa patterns, drawn in a variety of colors on a deep black base, and their shimmering appearance are a must-see! This piece is filled with visual attention to detail, such as the use of color gradations and the design of animal patterns, truly representing "what comes into view beyond individuality." Brand new, unused, and only worn for photography, this piece is still basted and "hand-sewn." This kimono incorporates high-design animal sarasa with dark-toned colors, focusing on the beauty of the design. Intricate yet not overly ornate... it is the perfect garment to express a unique appearance. Sarasa is one of the names for silk fabrics originating from China, Southeast Asia, India, and Persia, along with donsu, kinran, ginran, kandomichi, nishiki, mole, and futsu. It was introduced to Japan during the Muromachi period through trade with China as meibutsu-gire (famous textiles). The motifs of sarasa patterns are diverse, including flowers, birds, animals, people, and geometric patterns, with no particular fixed ones. It is said that the name came from the fact that the finest, most colorful cotton fabrics in 16th-century India were called saraso or sarasses. Now! Open the door... and see what everyone will be gazing at with envy... Highly recommended.
