This is a kimono silk fabric cut into
Furisode shape and stitched roughly before sewing to make furisode.
Furisode is made of a bolt of cloth which is 14.2" in width.
This item has an enchanting kanoko dotted pattern which is dyed with shibori(tie-dye) technique.
There are also pretty flowers such as ume (plum blossoms) and kiku (chrysanthemums) dyed or embroidered.
Textile is soft donsu, a kind of rinzu silk with damask effect of kiri(paulownia) and
phoenix in lozenge pattern.
There is an outstanding stain as the photo A shows.
As for other damages, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
Still it will be a wonderful handicraft material.
