Offering kimonos from my collection.

Antique
Five Crests
Kurotomesode (Formal Black Kimono)

This is a kurotomesode made of pure silk Nishijin Chirimen fabric, featuring designs such as peonies, imperial carriages, plum, bamboo, pine, paulownia, and fans. It is gorgeous yet has a gentle color palette, giving it an elegant feel. Some parts have hand embroidery. The gold thread edging is starting to come loose in places. The black base color has faded and has uneven coloring, making it unsuitable for wearing. Please consider it as fabric. There are no noticeable stains or dirt where the patterns are depicted, and the lining (hakkake) also has patterns in four places using the same fabric, so it should be quite usable as a material for remakes. I had kept it with the intention of remaking it into a dress or similar item.
The fabric is soft, fluffy, and has a pleasant texture.

As shown in the last image, the white silk fabric for the lining (dou-ura) and collar lining (eri-ura) has stains.

The sleeve lining (sode-ura) is a scarlet silk fabric, shown in the second to last image. It is relatively clean.
