This is a komon kimono dyed using the wax-resist (ro-tataki) technique on white Oshima fabric. It appears to be a komon kimono that incorporates wax-resist dyeing, a technique where melted wax is applied to the white fabric with a brush, and then the fabric is struck with a stick to create a granular wax splatter for resist dyeing, followed by dyeing. The entire kimono has brown speckles from the wax splatter, and it's possible that it was dyed brown after the wax was removed. Typically, wax-resist dyeing involves applying yellowish-brown speckles to the waxed fabric, placing stencils of flowers like chrysanthemums, bellflowers, gentians, and peonies, as well as other plants like bush clover, for resist dyeing, and then dyeing the background in navy blue, followed by stencil dyeing a lattice pattern and white dots around it. Looking at the dyed structure (photos 6, 7, and 8), the connection between the wax-resist portions and the flowers and navy blue background seems unnatural. The speckled pattern created by applying wax with a brush and striking it with a stick also seems to have been carved into a stencil. In other words, I believe that the dot-like lattice and the hail-like dots of the wax-resist portions were also dyed using stencils after the floral patterns were applied. To do that work, you would need to prepare stencils for the speckles. The number of stencils increases with the number of colors, so this must be a difficult task. The patterns created with white dots appear to be placed on top of the floral patterns, so they seem to have been dyed later. This is just a guess, but I think it's a stencil-dyed komon that looks like wax-resist dyeing. It's just my opinion, but it's a sophisticated stencil-dyed komon that resembles wax-resist dyeing. The lining is white habutae silk, and the hagaki (underskirt) is made of seika crepe, using a plain reddish-brown fabric. Both the outer and inner fabrics are silk. Measurements (cm) Length (back) 151, Sleeve length 62, Sleeve width 32, Sleeve length 49, Back width 28, Front width 22.5 Wide collar, with bare snaps attached. Recommended for petite individuals around 151 cm tall. There are green rust marks from the snaps near the collar of the lining. Since they are bare snaps, this is considered unavoidable soiling in the industry. (Photo 4) There appear to be no other stains or dirt. There are wrinkles from wear on the lining and hagaki, but the outer fabric is Oshima fabric, so it's fine. We check for stains and dirt as thoroughly as possible, but there may be oversights.
