Antique Japanese Cream Silk Brocade Uchikake Gold Embroidered Kimono, Framed. Japanese silk kimono mounted inside acrylic shadow box.

80 x 58.5 x 5. Cream silk brocade with gorgeous hand-embroidered scenes of flying cranes in nature, traditional symbols of prosperity and auspiciousness. Gold weighted down trim and larger than life size for ceremonial use only.
