Ivory Misty Kasuri Tsumugi

Ivory Misty Kasuri Tsumugi

R1 700,00Price
A refined tsumugi silk kimono woven in delicate ivory-white, its surface marked by fine vertical striations that create a softly textured ground. Subtle kasuri (ikat) dashes in pale pink and faint gray geometric lines drift across the silk like brushstrokes on mist — forming a quiet, abstract lattice that feels both natural and intentional.
The restrained palette and gently blurred pattern embody the essence of wabi-sabi beauty — serenity, imperfection, and transience — while the handwoven tsumugi silk lends a tactile warmth prized in everyday elegance.
Likely from the late Shōwa era (circa 1970s–1980s), this piece reflects a shift toward minimalist, nature-inspired design, where subtle texture replaced ornate decoration.
A kimono of calm refinement — whispering of spring light through haze, and the artistry found in 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.
