VINTAGE JAPANESE SILK FURISODE KIMONO — WHITE & PURPLE

Japanese elegance. A timeless piece of tradition.

An exquisite vintage Japanese silk furisode, featuring beautiful purple and lavender folding fans, delicate flowers and flowing water motifs against a pure white silk background.

The intricate woven patterns subtly catch the light, while the rich purple detailing adds a graceful contrast.

Traditional folding fans symbolise prosperity and a bright future, making this a beautiful garment filled with Japanese heritage and symbolism.

THE STORY BEHIND THE LONG SLEEVES

Furisode means “swinging sleeves” and is traditionally the most formal kimono worn by unmarried women.

In centuries past, it was customary for women to shorten their long sleeves after marriage, marking a new chapter in life.

Today, furisode is famously worn at Japan’s Coming of Age Ceremony (Seijin-shiki), celebrating the transition into adulthood, as well as other special occasions.

A beautiful tradition passed down through generations.
