This silk wedding kurofurisode showcases large yuzen-painted cranes and five mon (family crests), reflecting a formal style. Measuring 49 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end (124 cm) with a height of 60 inches (152 cm), this kimono symbolizes longevity, loyalty, honor, and wisdom. In Japanese weddings, the red-crowned crane signifies immortality, acting as a messenger between heaven and earth, embodying spiritual elevation. Their white bodies represent purity, while their red heads denote vitality. This furisode, adorned with flying cranes against a beautifully shaded multi-color background, exhibits exceptional artistry and would likely have been worn by either the bride before the main ceremony or an unmarried sister during the wedding.
