This is a gorgeous, fully embroidered visiting kimono featuring a treasure motif, a design that blooms "for whom the flowers bloom." The dignified shades of wisteria purple create an unparalleled sense of calm. The exquisite, vibrant embroidery of the treasure motif, with its skillful composition, breathes life into the garment. Despite its simple theme, the design evokes a lustrous depth, a beauty born from the exceptional technique, superior sensitivity, and delicacy of the embroidered kimono. The lavishness of the full embroidery is refined and elegant, offering a supreme piece for enjoying the sophisticated attire of an adult. This is a brand new, unworn piece, only dressed for photography, with the basting threads still attached and hand-sewn. This kimono features a classic, modern "treasure" embroidery in light grayish tones to enhance the visual effect. Intricate yet not overly assertive, the "subtle sense" that peeks through the design is very impressive. The treasure motif is a lucky auspicious pattern that arranges various treasures. It originates from the Eight Treasures (happou) and Miscellaneous Eight Treasures (zatsuhappou), which are part of the auspicious thought of China. It was introduced to Japan during the Muromachi period. Representative items include the "magic mallet," "invisible cloak," "invisible hat," and "money bag," among others. However, the motifs have changed depending on the era and region, giving rise to the modern Japanese treasure patterns. "For whom the flowers bloom... conveying feelings with treasures," this gorgeous "fully embroidered" piece will captivate the eye. It is sure to deliver an elegant charm and depth to the adult figure, creating a beautiful silhouette. We highly recommend this piece for you.
