This chirimen (crepe-silk) kimono showcases endearing, childlike hand-painted scenes depicting homes and trees. Its pronounced, thick crepe texture makes it ideal for the heavier winter season. There's a light, sizable stain on the inner upper lining (doura) and some inconspicuous foxing on the outer. Measuring 49 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and 59 inches in height (124 cm x 150 cm), this kimono stands out for its unique aesthetics, likely crafted in a specialized artist workshop catering to affluent patrons.
