This high-quality silk haori is a stunning piece featuring paulownia motifs on a rinzu (damask) background. It's unique as the rinzu background mirrors the paulownia motif of the yuzen-painted foreground. The two large hand-embroidered crests add to its elegance. With three small family crests, this haori was intended for formal use, a rarity among haori. The inner lining showcases shibori with tiny hand-painted motifs, evident in the detail images. The garment measures 50 inches (127 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and stands at 41 inches (104 cm) in height. The meticulous silk quality, fine shibori lining, pastel colors in the yuzen-work, and the spacing between motifs collectively denote a luxurious creation, crafted by top-tier artists.
