Genuine vintage Japanese kimono.

This is called a  SHA TSUMUGI 紗紬

One-of-a-kind-vintage.

 

This is originally a kimono for woman. Summer Kimono.
I would suggest a style that is unisex and casual wear

A beautiful silk 紗紬 SHA TSUMUGI kimono is worn as a robe.

Kimonos can be broadly divided into two fabrics types. 
They are "yarn-dyed kimonos" = "ORI"  and  "post-dyed kimonos" = "SOME".

Yarn-dyed fabrics”ORI” are fabrics that are dyed and woven while the threads are still in the yarn. 
Typical examples are "tsumugi", “omeshi”, and "cotton kasuri".
Tsumugi is especially popular among modern Japanese people, and many fabrics have simple designs.
Post-dyed kimonos”SOME” refers to kimono woven with white threads without dyeing, to which "komon dyeing," "Bingata dyeing," "Yuzen dyeing," and other processes are applied.
I feel that the kimono that people overseas imagine is like a “SOME” kimono.

This Kimono is a fabric called “紗紬 Sha Tsumugi"
Fabric for summer kimono woven with nep threads.

The pattern on this kimono is not a print. The pattern is expressed using a technique called “egasuri,” which uses threads.

I carefully handpicked this piece, which is in very good condition for a vintage garment.

 (This is a very old piece. Thank you for your understanding of damage to antique items.)
