Dusty Rose Silk Haori: Silkscreened Cream Floral Motifs

This silk haori is a delicate example of Mid-Showa period textile art, utilizing a refined, organic textures to ground a sparse botanical composition. The garment is rendered on a dusty rose and ochre field, providing a textured, mottled background that mimics the appearance of natural stone or marbled paper.

The primary design features a series of silkscreened floral motifs, likely spider lilies or wild orchids, which appear to drift elegantly across the body and sleeves. These blossoms are rendered in a crisp palette of cream and pale yellow with dark, slender stems, creating a sharp visual contrast against the busy, multi-tonal field. The composition emphasizes "ma" (negative space), allowing the complex, marbled texture of the silk to remain a central element of the garment's aesthetic.

It measures 49 inches (124 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and has a height of 30 inches (76 cm).
