This kimono features bold geometric patterns that reflect the influence of Art Deco and early modernist movements that were emerging internationally during this period (1900-1926). The design alternates between vertical panels of different motifs: stylized yellow arrow feathers (yabane) rendered in dynamic diagonal arrangements against a deep blue ground, and contrasting sections featuring intricate lattice work with dark geometric forms that create a sense of rhythmic repetition.

The yabane motif carries significant symbolic meaning in Japanese culture, traditionally representing protection from evil and the ability to ward off misfortune - arrows were believed to fly straight and true, never returning once shot. This makes the pattern particularly auspicious for kimono wear. The modernist treatment of these traditional motifs through stenciling and silkscreen techniques demonstrates the innovative fusion of time-honored symbolism with contemporary artistic approaches. The lattice patterns complement the arrow feathers by providing structural stability to the overall composition, their rigid geometry creating a sophisticated counterpoint to the more organic, flowing lines of the feather motifs.

The sophisticated use of the rinzu damask silk technique adds textural depth to the already complex visual interplay, while the limited color palette of deep blues, vibrant yellows, and subtle red accents reflects both the aesthetic restraint characteristic of modernist design and the refined sensibilities of Japanese textile arts during this transitional period in the early 20th century.

It measures approximately 50 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and stands 58 inches tall (127 cm x 147 cm).
