This is such a graceful summer susohiki from a geisha.
Its has graceful autumn flowers and grass pattern, which is dyed.
Its design is exceptionally gorgeous and elegant!
Textile is silk and has grain like woven pattern.
It is lined only lower part.

**Susohiki literally means `trail the skirt' and this type of kimono is much longer than other kimono.
This is worn to do the elegant dance with a folding fan in the Japanese style drawing room.

Its background color is prominently discolored. Especially, discoloration is prominent in the shoulder, sleeve, hip under arm part.
It also has many prominent large stains.
We can't say it is in very good condition, but it must be wonderful handicraft material or interior decor!
