The delicately handpainted lining of this haori is simply too beautiful to hide! Display it in your home or wear the lovely lining on the outside to show it off.
While the outer-fabric boasts rich black silk and five family crests, the lining features a unique scene from the traditional Noh theater. Upon crisp white, an elderly man (wearing a mask) offers words of wisdom to a young nobleman as he leans against a pine tree.
With wonderfully detailed robes and a captivating narrative, this rare scene deserves an audience!
