This fine silk kimono boasts red, yellow, white, and blue dyed fans stenciled on a rinzu background, measuring 48 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and standing 63 inches tall (122 cm x 160 cm).

The symbolism behind the fan and bamboo motifs adds depth to the garment. Japanese culture assigns profound meanings to these elements: the fan's handle signifies the beginning of life, while the bamboo ribs represent life's diverse paths. Opening a fan is considered an auspicious sign, symbolizing the unfolding of the future. Bamboo motifs embody constancy through evergreen leaves, moderation with evenly-spread nodes, and moral resilience portrayed by its flexibility in the wind.

This kimono's design is remarkable: the stacked fans create a visually striking effect, blending tradition with a strong, almost avant-garde 'modern' graphic design, particularly noteworthy for its groundbreaking style during its early 20th-century creation. This fusion of tradition and modernity exemplifies the timeless innovation of Japanese textile design.
