This is a kurotomesode, most formal kimono for married women. This piece is from around Taisho period(1912-1925), and has wonderful takara ship and wave pattern, which is dyed with
yuzen technique. In the both front parts, fine embroidery is added. This piece's unique design and rich embroidery are both rare and wonderful!
Textile is exquisite silk, and has very soft touch.
It has some flaws as photos show(discoloration of black color is very slight), but as a whole it is in very good condition.
*Approx background color - black
