This is a vintage asa, kimono.
Textile is woven with ramie('choma') and has beautiful
kasuri pattern, which is woven elaborately.
Textile is thin but has stiff and crispy touch of asa.
It has some flaws as photos show. This piece must be an excellent handicraft material!
*Approx background color - black
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft, Soft, Medium, Comparatively Stiff, □ Stiff )

*In Japanese, 'asa' includes below three kinds of material. You must feel it strange that 'linen' is included.
