When this color scheme is used in nishiki (brocade), it is called Chōhan Nishiki. The original piece is a fragment from the imperial carriage stored in Shōsōin. This work is woven using the warp-faced compound weave (kyō-kin) technique, with some new compositional ingenuity and the addition of gold and silver threads. ●Suitable Occasions Weddings, tea ceremonies, entrance/graduation ceremonies, formal events, Shichi-Go-San, celebratory occasions, etc. Thank you for considering.
