Japanese Uchikake
Early 1950s. Probably from Kyoto.

Wedding kimono of chirimen silk with silk embroidery and stenciled gold surihaku. Early 1950s. Cranes, with pine boughs and waves. Unfortunately the richness and subtlety of the red silk embroidery on red crepe are not apparent in these photos, but the effect is lovely.  The garment is in excellent condition. 52"across the shoulders; 73"long.  $1350
