This kimono, a replica of the furisode kimono from the Meiji era, features an exquisite design of a fan and chrysanthemums on a purple background. The pattern inside the fan is finely drawn with delicate thread pastes and completed with Yūzen dyeing. The dye of each chrysanthemum, the gilding on the fan, the embroidery on the strings – these details showcase the distinguished craftsmanship of Chiso's master artisans.
