◆ Hiyoku Eri ◆ Hiyoku Eri ◆ Hiyoku Eri (Double Collar) ◆ Kyo no Hana ◆ "Sayagata Pattern" ◆ Passion Pink Color ◆ Comes with 6 pins ◆ Odori (Dance) ◆ Kimono Accessories ◈ Size (Measured by an amateur) Width: 11.8 cm Length: 130 cm ✺ This is a "Hiyoku Eri (Kyo no Hana)" that was stored in my mother's chest of drawers, who loved to dance. ✺ It's a vibrant, passion pink "Hiyoku Eri" that catches the eye. ✺ Velcro is attached, one on each end, closer to the center. ✺ Six black pins are included in the box. ✺ It was stored in the chest of drawers in its box, so there are fold marks. ✺ Due to aging, or perhaps from the beginning, the white backing is a slightly off-white color. ✺ There is no quality label, so it's unclear. ✺ My mother bought it but kept it stored, so it's probably unused. ✺ I'm offering it for sale, hoping someone will use it. ◆ Immediate purchase is OK!!! ✺ Please understand that this item has been stored at home. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 【Reference】 • Hiyoku Eri refers to the tailoring that makes it look like two kimonos are layered, or the accessories for that purpose (also called kasane-eri or date-eri). • Origin: In the past, "kasane-gi" (layering), where multiple kimonos were worn, was considered proper etiquette for formal occasions (the Junihitoe of the Heian period is a typical example). • Nowadays, as a remnant of that, even with a single kimono, "Hiyoku tailoring" is used, where white fabric is attached to the collar, cuffs, and hem to make it look like layering. • Meaning: It has an auspicious meaning, wishing for "happiness to overlap." • Usage: It is often used for formal attire such as black tomesode and iro-tomesode, enhancing the formal impression. Also, kasane-eri (Hiyoku Eri) is used at celebratory occasions such as coming-of-age ceremonies and graduation ceremonies for furisode. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ • A vibrant pink kasane-eri, with an illustration of a female model. - Color: Pink - Design: Sayagata - Package: Boxed Thank you for viewing.
