This striking antique furisode might seem contemporary, yet its design closely resembles at least one 18th-century example (referenced in "The Story of The Kimono" by Jill Liddell, plate 200). It prominently features the tabane-noshi motif: originally representing narrow strips of dried abalone bundled together as a ritual offering in Japanese Shinto religion. This motif was created using yuzen resist-painting with embroidered highlights and metallic couching outlining. It also features five family crests (mon). Its measurements are 50 inches from sleeve-end to sleeve-end by 67 inches in height (127 cm by 170 cm).
