This juban is a luxurious under-kimono, and would also make a joyful outer-kimono or robe.
Large, floral cirles float through the surface of this juban, framing Japanese citrus and chrysanthemums. Textured tasssels whip around the entire design and connect each circle to the next.
The rosy pink tone of this juban transitions gentley to white, creating a glowing effect around the circles.
