This exquisite women's Furisode is a stunning blend of traditional craftsmanship and elegant design. Made from luxurious rinzu silk, the soft pale cream base serves as the perfect canvas for the beautiful, flowing river pattern that runs across the fabric. The river, rendered in a rich, deep purple color, is a symbol of tranquility and constant flow, often representing life's journey in Japanese culture. In Japanese culture, rivers symbolize the passage of time, the flow of life, and the connection between past, present, and future, making this motif particularly meaningful.
The deep purple color itself is traditionally associated with nobility, power, and luxury. It is historically considered the color of the elite, and in Japan, purple represents dignity, elegance, and spiritual depth. It is a color often used in garments meant for the highest occasions, symbolizing wealth, respect, and status.
The prominent design elements of this Furisode include a bold flowing river pattern, accentuated with five large circular crests featuring floral embroidery, enhanced with metallic threads for an added touch of elegance and shimmer. The kimono's yuzen dyeing technique brings the river and floral motifs to life with intricate detailing and beautiful color transitions.
In good condition, this Furisode has been carefully preserved, with the exquisite design remaining vibrant and intact. The flowing river motif and luxurious fabric make it a timeless and eye-catching piece, ideal for formal events and special occasions.
