This vibrant and exceptional silk wedding robe showcases a masterful depiction of a phoenix alongside paulownia and peony flowers. Crafted using yuzen-painting on a smooth, high-quality silk, it measures 49 inches (124 cm) across the sleeves and stands at 61 inches (155 cm) in height.

The phoenix and the paulownia share an intimate association in Japanese legend, as the phoenix only descends to rest upon the branches of this specific tree. A symbol of peace and the rising sun, the phoenix represents a composite of several animals and is esteemed for its melodious and auspicious song. As the female counterpart to the male dragon, its multicolored feathers symbolize traditional virtues such as truthfulness, propriety, righteousness, benevolence, and sincerity, making it a highly auspicious motif for weddings.

Meanwhile, the peony, known as the flower of riches and honor, stands as an emblem of wealth and distinction. It symbolizes prosperity, happiness, and peace while embodying love and affection, often signifying feminine beauty. Together, these elements create a symbolic tapestry representing auspicious virtues and blessings for the bride.
