This is a contemporary light blue
tsukesage kimono.
Across the skirt, shading pastel colors are mingled mistily.
Textile is rinzu, silk with damask effect, and has soft touch.
There is a kamon (family crest) remained undyed.
Its hakkake (lower part of lining) is of the same mingled gradation as the bottom, and there are two pretty blossoms floating on the left inside.
There are a signature and the stamp of the dyer on the right front.
As the photos and the sheet show, there is a small yellowish stain on left of the lapel, though it could be hidden by arranging the way of folding the collar.
Also, the lining is slightly discolored.
As a whole, it's in very good condition and can still be enjoyed wearing.
