Made of pure ivory silk with a beautiful pearly luster, this kimono, with long, flowing sleeves that almost touches to the ground, is a vision of sweeping beauty.
Woven into this soft satin silk is an elegant damask design, which seems to flow like the feathers of a crane.
Eye-catching gold and red clouds drift across the kimono carrying with them colorful flowers, carefully couched in gold and silver at the front left panel and back left panel.
