This is a charming vintage kimono with delightful flower pattern of peonies, lilies and wisterias.
Dyed on the sedate gray background, vivid pink and yellow flowers are so appealing to the eyes.
Textile is silk and has soft touch.
This piece is hitoe (not lined).
Lapel is bachi-eri(folded lapel).
Sleeves are gracefully long, which is the feature of kimonos from pre WWII.
Its collar and collar lining is partly detached at the ends with the seam unpicked and loosened (G, I).
The left front is rather prominently discolored in a place (D).
The right sleeve is noticeably stained (F).
Having some other flaws as well, it feels rather aged and worn out.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
