This rinzu (damask) silk kimono showcases abstract yellow yabane (arrow feather) and lattice motifs. The silk has a remarkably soft and flowing texture, adding to its elegance. Measuring about 50 inches (127 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and 58 inches (147 cm) in height, this kimono reflects a notable trend from the early 20th century.
During this period, Japanese textile artists started reinterpreting traditional motifs, presenting them in fresh and innovative graphic styles. This kimono's abstract take on the yabane and lattice motifs exemplifies this shift, capturing the essence of traditional designs in a contemporary and visually engaging manner.
