Authentic Japanese Kimono Fabric Silk
Living National Treasure

Edo Komon:
- It is said that during the Edo period, the patterns were dyed on the kimonos that the feudal lords from all over the country were required to wear by their respective clans. At first glance, it looks like a plain color from a distance, but when you get up close, you can only see the intricate patterns that were sought out and nurtured by the sense of style of samurai and townspeople who were suppressed by the ban on extravagance.
