'Senpabanpa' Kimono

  • The vintage silk 'Many Waves' Kimono features a dusky-pink, repeating wave pattern, against a pearlescent cream background with intermittent larger waves in grape, orange and olive green. From a distance the overall colour appears pale pink.

    The lining has panels of cream, pale lemon and lilac silk.

    Externally this kimono is immaculate except for the tiniest hole towards the hem at the back of the garment. The inside lining has a little age spotting down the back where it is not visible when worn or hung as wall art.

    Note - Please Read before purchase:

    Kimonos are generally made, for wearing traditionally tied with an Obi sash, on smaller framed, not too tall bodies - however if worn as an open jacket there is generally enough room in the sleeve area and in length to be worn by several sizes larger and taller than originally intended. However there is no guarantee it will sit perfectly on your body shape. Let's call it freestyle!

    As we take every measure to ensure you are advised of the correct sizing prior to purchase - we ask you to please be aware that we don't refund for garments chosen in error. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any queries regarding dimensions before purchase.

    All vintage and antique kimono and haori were hand made. Therefore you may see some loose, temporary stitches around edges of sleeves, hems and collars on our kimonos. These stitches, called shitsuke ito, are kept in place to assist the valuable kimono in retaining its shape and alignment. In Japan the stitches are normally removed before wearing then restitched again after cleaning and before storage, for the same reasons as above. We like the look of authenticity they bring so feel free to retain them if you like, or remove them before wearing.
