This is a wonderful
meisen haori.
The red leaves of its woven pattern catch attention against its black background.
Textile is silk and has soft touch.
Its lining seems silk and jinken (rayon) blend.
Its basting stitches remain and it seems unworn.
However, patinas and discoloration from its old age can be seen on the paler colored places.
Still this piece will come in useful when you wish to make a classical coordinate.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
*Approx background color - black
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft, □ Soft, Medium, Comparatively Stiff, Stiff )
