VINTAGE JAPANESE SILK UCHIKAKE KIMONO — MINT GREEN, IVORY & GOLD

Japanese elegance. A timeless piece of tradition.

An exquisite vintage Japanese uchikake kimono, featuring a beautiful combination of soft mint green, ivory, shimmering gold and warm coral-orange accents.

The luxurious fabric is adorned with intricate circular floral medallions, elegant paulownia-inspired motifs and delicate geometric patterns, creating a harmonious blend of colour and traditional Japanese artistry.

Subtle woven textures catch the light beautifully, while the metallic gold detailing adds richness and depth to this remarkable garment.

The flowing ivory patterns and vibrant orange hem create a striking contrast, making this a truly captivating piece of Japanese textile heritage.

THE STORY BEHIND THE UCHIKAKE

The uchikake is a traditional Japanese outer kimono, historically worn by women of high social standing and later becoming an iconic part of Japanese bridal attire.

Unlike an everyday kimono, the uchikake is worn open over another kimono, without an obi tied around the outside.

Its long, flowing silhouette and elaborate decoration symbolise elegance, celebration and the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship.

The paulownia motif, known as kiri in Japanese, has long been associated with nobility, good fortune and prosperity.

A beautiful expression of tradition, artistry and timeless Japanese elegance.
