Beautiful Japanese maru obi! Obis can be used as a belt to hold a kimono together.

The gold is woven into the fabric almost entirely and sparkles when it is hit by light – it has much gentler tones in the dark. The earth tone green and rusty brown are particularly pretty on this obi. With a thick padding inside, this obi will make a great decoration piec ...click for details

Japanese uchikake (wedding gown) with a colorful design of flowers and birds done in the Tsujigahana-zome (dye) style.

Tsujigahana-dye was short lived and completely vanished by the early 17th century because of its extreme complexity. This gown is very beautiful with many woven metal threads; ...click for details

Circa, Taisho to early Showa period, 1930-1940. Dimensions: 25 5/8" x 29"

Unique Japanese wedding kimono (Uchikake), embroidered in light blue silk. This gown is very tasteful. It was not made in a large Uchikake kimono maker but sewn on a professional level. The colors of fabric and the embroideries are slightly different on different parts of the gown. This was mainly caused by the light and direction of the fabric. This may sound strange to you but the same thing happens with a silk carpet; when you look at the silk carpet from the different angles, t ...click for details
