Genuine vintage Japanese kimonos.

This is called a UCHIKAKE(打掛け) Wedding bridal gown.

With gold thread embroidery: Kinkomashishu 金駒刺繍 is a technique in which thick gold thread, which would not pass through a needle hole, is wound around a wooden piece, rolled along the pattern, and sewn onto the cloth with fine thread.
Kinkomashishu is one of the traditional Japanese embroidery techniques used with yuzen dyeing and other techniques, and is especially known for being applied to furisode (long-sleeved kimono) and high-class kimonos. It has a delicate and unique beauty.
