This is a magnificent
Furisode from Taisho period(1912-1925) or early Showa period(Showa:1926-1989).
It has FABULOUS design - crane, wave, rocks, pine tree, bamboo and other motifs are dyed boldly all over it! In addition, many parts are added colorful embroidery.
Please enjoy its wonderful details with more photos.
It has some flaws because of its old age.
*1cm-0.4in cut in the left sleeve ( gold part) - we worried all gold parts might become weakened, but we only find one that cut. Other gold parts is ok.
*Many embroidery is becoming uneven or coming off. More than checked part in figure. And some parts are repaired roughly.
*Several stains.
*Slight smudges in the white parts and hems.
However, as a whole it is in very good condition.
*Approx background color - Black
