Likely mid-Showa era (circa 1950s–1970s)
Crafted from dark grey tsumugi silk with subtle tate-jima vertical stripes, this kimono drapes with structured elegance while offering a relaxed, comfortable fit. Side slits at the hips allow freedom of movement and versatile layering over modern trousers or shirts.
A piece of understated sophistication, blending classic craftsmanship with contemporary ease.

  • Condition

    Fair vintage condition — visible blemishes and light staining present. These marks are consistent with age and use, and do not affect wearability.

  • 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.
