Woman's Kimono, Brown Kasuri, Tsumugi (handspun) Silk

This woman's kimono has a kasuri tie-dyed design of crossed arrow feathers (yabane). It is made of a nubby handspun, natural/plant-dyed silk; done in the Murayama Oshima tsumugi style. The sleeves are elegantly long (26 inches!). The lining is made of cotton (upper) and silk (lower).

In excellent condition. Only very slight areas of discoloration (front lower panel). No other damage. Clean throughout.

Measurements: 54 in. long.; 50 in. wide (sleeve to sleeve).

Dates from the first half of the 20th century (pre-war; approx. 70-80 years old).
