Fabric Description: This high-quality, 1930s-1950s kimono silk is a lightweight fabric, slightly translucent; Background color is a creamy-tan with lateral scattered thin broken lines; the oreground (which is most of the layout) is of various geometric shapes, as well as 7.5 inches / 19.05cm long medallions, stylized vines or chain-like patterns in right angles; design colors used: light to dark mustard yellows, olive-greens, white, pinks, brown, black and burgundy; there are also other abstract designs within the various shapes, some are apparent leaves/blossoms - truly another modernistic, perhaps abstractionist look from early post-World War II, 1950s Japan; Motifs are same on both sides (Please see close-ups).

Colors: Please use our text color descriptions to complement your sense of the fabric due to differences in contrast and color on different devices.

Condition: Excellent.
