This is a colorful vintage haori with pretty camellia and cloud shape pattern, which is dyed over large 'kikko' (tortoise shell) pattern of damask effect.
Textile is rinzu, silk with damask effect, and it's soft and a little sleek.
The sleeves are gracefully long, which is the feature of kimonos from pre WWII.
As the photos and the sheet show, it has some flaws.
The sleeves have noticeable stains and smudges.
The base color has patinas with age.
Still, its overall condition is very good for enjoying the retro design.
