Antique Japanese Meiji Uchikake Wedding
Kimono w/ Fans & Floral
For your consideration is this antique Japanese wedding kimono from the Meiji Period (1868 - 1912).  This  woven uchikake is decorated with sparrows and fans.  Chrysanthemums are colored in alternating gold and silver as are the roofs of Japanese huts.  Pine and bamboo also embellish this amazing collectible.  Both exterior and interior lining (with a floral motif) are silk.  There is a small red spot on the lapel that is hardly visible and would not be evident if displayed on a stand or hung on a wall.  Overall, this kimono is in very good antique condition for its age!  (R904/264)
