Beaming Gold WEDDING KIMONO Phoenix and Cherry Flowers
This uchikake is a wonderful way to bring the light of the sun into your home.
The surface of this masterpiece is striped with black and gold, while golden cherry blossoms tumble from the invisible cherry trees above. Chrysanthemums shine in rainbow colors while cranes flap their luminous gold and silver wings.
The red lining adds a luxuruious touch to the golden outer-fabric, while the padding along the bottom hem gives the entire piece a wonderful shape for display.
