This divine uchikake is absolutely breath-taking! With an iridescent surface and colorful flowers, it will make a glamorous masterpiece for your home!
The magical surface sparkles and shimmers with every color of the rainbow as gold flecks glow in the light. Rivers wind and bouquets of spring flowers blossom as geometric motifs twinkle in gold and pure white cranes soar above. Strips of fabric along the edges of the sleeves and collar create a sumptuous layered look as decorative tassels hang from the sleeves.
This uchikake is padded along the bottom edge to create an appealing shape when displayed.
