Kikufuryuu - Floating Chrysanthemum

Woo hoo! $10 furisode! Well... it was a $10 furisode, until Rinkya charged me $50 US to ship it from Japan. So it ends up being more like a $70 furisode for this little Canadian. Still worth it, considering the beautiful condition! Aside from the occasional patina on the white parts (which is expected) and a teeny little snag, it's in perfect condition!

I actually bought it as a bit of a gamble. I saw it going for $10. The pictures weren't very good, I wasn't even sure what kind of kimono it was, but the fabric looked beautiful and the pattern looked nice and bold - just the way I like it! So I lucked out, I guess.

Nice! I also just got a furisode for $10.00, but it doesn't look like it's very old or unusual. Your furisode is such a great find :). Does it fit?

Very cool pattern! The addition of the collar inside is very neat too! Still, $60 for such a nice furisode is a great price! :D

Thanks! Nah, it doesn't really fit... vintage kimono never fit me. :(

It is long enough that I can probably fudge an ohashiori with it though.
