Grapevines Antique Japanese Kimono - Wafuku 1
  • A fabulous, antique kimono, with a pattern of grapevines. It has the extra deep sleeves found on antique kimonos
  • Awase (lined)
  • Sash/Belt not included - for display purposes only
  • May have white shitsuke (basting stitches) around some edges, on the outside of the garment. These are simply to keep it neat during storage and just get pulled out before use
  • Made and bought in Japan
  • Sash not included
  • 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
  • Jinken - a natural fibre, rather like rayon, used during wartime when silk was not available, as all silk was reserved to make parachutes
     

Condition:
Excellent - I thought there was a tiny, inconspicuous mark on this one but now I can't find it, so, if it is there, it is not noticeable

Measurements:
Sleeve end to sleeve end 124cm
Sleeve seam to sleeve seam (yuki) 61cm
Length 146cm
Weight approx. 1.1 kilo

Sizing:
Japanese clothing is usually of adjustable fit, being mostly wrap-over or tie-to-fit items, so most garments fit a range of sizes. Because of this (and only really knowing my own size anyway) I can't really advise anyone on the fit. Please judge fit from the measurements given. Measure from centre back of neck, along shoulder and down the arm to the wrist, then double that and compare it with the sleeve end measurement to judge sleeve length. If shown modelled, the woman in the photos is 125 cm from wrist to wrist.
