Period / History
The kimono and under-kimono fabrics used in this canvas set were made during the late Showa period (1960-80s).
Explanation and Meaning of Pattern and Colors
The kimono used here was decorated with a prominent ocean wave pattern, and its shoulders, hem, and sleeves are enriched with a delicate ocean wave pattern dyed in beaten gold.
The seigaiha wave pattern is considered a symbol of good fortune, and its endless waves signify the wish for lasting happiness and a serene life for all.
Clouds, with their ever-changing shapes and colors, have always fascinated people as a sign of future great events or omens.
Characteristics of the fabric
Seigaiha, or the ocean wave pattern, elegantly decorates the canvas on a lustrous ivory background. While this kimono could be worn for formal occasions, it stands out for its distinctive feature: it is dyed in beaten gold without any easily recognizable motifs, setting it apart in terms of its unique design and elegance.
