Back
This is a striking shibori dyed han juban, which is often worn underneath a kimono. Shibori is a Japanese dying technique where patterns are made by binding, stiching, folding, twisting, and compressing the fabric. The bodice of this garment is made of cotton and dyed with indigo to achieve a snowflower pattern, known as sekka shibori. The sleeves are made of silk and have an intricate geometric design. The piece can be dated to the Showa period, around 1940's and is in very good condition, save for some light discoloration to the front and reverse of the garment.
Dimensions: 47 3/4" x 46 1/2"
