This pair complements item 2300, likely dedicated in the same year, 1878. It features embroidered applique peonies on a red bast-fiber background. Measuring 80 inches by 49 inches (203 cm x 124 cm), it's in good condition, showing some tiny holes in the lower red background. Peonies hold significance in Japan as a symbol of nobility. Interestingly, Buddhist monk Kong Hai introduced tree peonies to Japan in the 8th century for medicinal purposes.
