This is a hitoe (not lined) summer kimono with soothing 'seigaiha' (wave), stream and bellflower pattern.
The pattern is woven in some lines of overall stripe pattern, which is expressed by shifting the textile's transparency degree.
On top of them, motifs of a man riding a raft is woven with
urushi coated threads.
Lapel is bachi-eri(folded lapel).
Textile is silk, and it's soft.
As the photos and the sheet show, there is wear on the lapel, and the left front has some stains.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
Still, it's a perfect piece to enjoy quaint Japanese vintage design.
