Antique Basketweave Kimono
  • A beautiful, antique, silk komon kimono. It has a lovely basket weave pattern. Magnificent, extra deep sleeves. The photos really don't do this kimono justice.
  • Silk
  • Awashe (lined) kimono
  • Komon kimonos are becoming steadily more rare and therefore also becoming collectible, This is because they are now rarely made, since very few people still wear kimonos daily, so there is little need for still making informal komon kimonos. Nowadays kimono makers tend to make only very formal, ornate styles of kimonos, for wear on special occasions, and summer, lightweight cotton yukata kimonos and not these day to day komon style ones. This means they are becoming fewer and fewer, so it is getting to be a case of get them while you still can.
  • Made and bought in Japan
  • Type: A komon kimono. This style is considered casual and may be worn around town or dressed up with a formal obi for a restaurant. Both married and unmarried women may wear this type of kimono. The most useful of all the kimono types, usually with an all-over repeat design. Komon kimonos and iro muji kimonos are becoming more and more rare as they are not made much anymore, since kimono makers tend to make only very formal, ornate kimonos and summer lightweight cotton yukata kimonos because very few people in Japan wear kimono all the time nowadays.
