Blue and White Uchikake with Cranes

Silk Uchikake (打掛) kimono with three dimensional silk floss embroidery with crane motifs. Designed to wear open, the brilliant red interior silver lining provides contrast to the cream and blue exterior.

Constructed with a trailing silk hem, this uchikake would make a dazzling wrap for your ball gown, or part of your ensemble for black tie events. This kimono photographs well, elegant and opulent. Ombre dyed silk both inside and out, the crane motif is embroidered in red and gold. Floral motifs in shades of blue, yellow, and green start on the shoulders and cascade to the floor and surround the gold crane motifs.
