This is a vintage women's asa kimono.
Textile is hand woven with hand spun 'choma'(ramie) and has tasteful geometric pattern, which is woven.
Textile is thin, but has textured and crispy touch of asa.
It has tears and other flaws as photos show.
It must be an excellent handicraft material!
*Approx background color - dark navy near black
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft, Soft, Medium, □Comparatively Stiff, Stiff )
