I purchased this from Konohana Online in December 2025. I fell in love with it because it's so cute, but I got nervous and couldn't wear it. (I've only ever worn used kimonos from my grandmother or mother.) I bought it for ¥49,500, but I only took it out of the bag. It's black, but more of a sumi-black, a soft black. Also, it feels nice and soft, so I think it would be easy to tie. I wore gloves when handling it so as not to get any hand oil on it.
