Ivory Hanabishi Rinzū Haori

Ivory Hanabishi Rinzū Haori

R1 700,00Price

This elegant haori is crafted from softly draping, crepe-textured silk in a creamy ivory tone, its surface woven in rinzū damask with a raised pattern of hanabishi (diamond flowers) in pale turquoise and white. The repeating four-petaled blooms — framed within interlocking lozenges — symbolise refinement, prosperity, and the quiet beauty of order in Japanese design.

The interplay of sheen and texture gives the fabric a gentle iridescence, as if the pattern shifts with the light. Originally a full-length kimono, it has been thoughtfully shortened to 90 cm, transforming it into a versatile haori-style jacket while preserving its traditional craftsmanship.

Likely from the mid-Shōwa era (1950s–1970s), this piece bridges the grace of classic weaving with a modern, wearable silhouette — understated yet luminous, timeless in its simplicity.

  • Condition

    Good vintage condition — light, age-related wear.

  • Sizing

    Kimonos are traditionally designed to be loose and unstructured, which makes them naturally one size fits most. They suit a wide range of body shapes and styles, regardless of gender. The main difference between each piece is the length, so be sure to check the listed length to find the fit and look you prefer.

  • Care Instructions

    Cleaning: Avoid washing your kimono. If you must, dry clean only by a specialist familiar with Japanese textiles. Avoid machine or hand washing.

    Stains: Gently blot stains with a soft cloth; avoid rubbing. Seek professional help for stubborn stains.

    Storage: Store flat in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture. Use a breathable garment bag.

    Hanging: Use a wide, padded hanger if hanging to avoid stretching.

    Airing: Air occasionally in a shaded area to prevent odors.
