Taisho Haori

Taisho Haori
Japan
Taisho era (1912-1926)
$5,000.00

A superbly-created silk jacket featuring yuzen-created "orizuru" (paper birds) highlighted with satin stitch and metallic thread embroidery. The base rinzu silk is an unusual and highly effective: ribbed and textured in the form of bamboo leaves. This garment was likely very expensive at the time, and obviously contracted by a wealthy family. A single mon. Very good condition.
