You'll feel as graceful and airy as a little bird in this lovely tomesode - literally!
The pattern along the bottom features a family of little gray birds as they rest among the beautiful chrysanthemums, plum blossoms and maple leaves of a blooming tree. Mists of soft green and tan highlight their shimmering gray feathers and golden beaks as the colorful flowers blossom all arounf them.
Five family crests accent the upper back and shoulders.
