The main techniques employed are shibori, yuzen-painting, and abundant foil highlighting. The soft, high-quality rinzu (damask) silk base features woven motifs of waves, birds, and flower circle patterns. Measuring 51 inches (129.5 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and standing 60 inches (152.4 cm) tall, it's a stunning piece with a combination of intricate techniques and exquisite design elements.
