This is a komon kimono with a classical fan shape pattern, which is colorfully dyed against the dark colored background.
Various small plant motifs such as kiku (chrysanthemum), bamboo and and 'hana karakusa' (flower arabesque) are scattered between the fans.
Textile is a kind of loose crepe chirimen (crepe) silk which has soft touch.

The flaw in photo C is indicated as discoloration but is actually the same stain as the one in photo D.
Also, there's a stain which is not in the figures on the narrow left front panel.
The lining has discoloration and patinas from its old age.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.

Still the flaws won't be easily noticed in the busy pattern.
So this piece will be perfect for daily use.

*Approx background color - black, or rather dark blue near to black
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft,□ Soft, Medium, Comparatively Stiff, Stiff )
