Description: This exquisite antique juban dates from the Taishō (1912–1926) to early Shōwa (1926–1930s) period and showcases the refined elegance of pre-war Japanese textile craftsmanship. Its all-over design features stylized clouds (kumo), maple leaves (momiji), and floral branches, rendered in a harmonious palette of deep purple, vermilion red, rust orange, ivory, and subtle black outlines. The interior features a striking contrast lining—saffron yellow at the hem, soft white through the body, and a vivid patchwork of red, gold, and yellow tones at the sleeve lining.  The composition is bold yet delicate, embodying the timeless aesthetic of early 20th-century kimono art.

Fabric: Made from soft, high-quality silk, the juban has a smooth hand and flowing drape.  This deep red tone is typical of antique juban, adding to its authenticity and visual richness.

Style: This juban can be worn layered under kimono or adapted for modern styling. Its detailed surface pattern and radiant inner color also make it an excellent display or collector’s piece.

Condition: In very good antique condition, with only minor age-related marks primarily on the inner lining. The outer fabric remains vibrant, strong, and beautifully preserved for its age, making this a rare find for collectors or kimono enthusiasts.
