This is a women’s rinzu (figured satin) silk kimono with a fantastic design like graphic art of tiles. They look like as Ancient Characters. I really love the design!
The texture of the silk is soft and smooth satin like. The lapel is hiro-eri (wide lapel). It would be stunning to use as a dress and also display as a fabulous piece of art for a room. Da Vince Code is such a wonderful antique piece.

It has some flaws and certain wear including a couple of tiny holes in the lining, but as a whole it is in good condition for the age. 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.
