Meisen is a type of plain-weave silk textile that uses the kasuri technique.
It became popular throughout Japan around 100 years ago as women's daily wear and fashionable clothing.
In Japan, it is called "antique kimono" and is still popular and highly appreciated overseas.
Meisen is characterized by a technique in which the colors of the warp and weft threads are intentionally shifted while weaving, blurring the boundaries between the colors. The result is gentle colors and patterns with a blurred appearance that cannot be seen in ordinary plain weave.
This is representative of Japanese silk kasuri kimono.

Width, including sleeves: 126cm
Length: 97cm

We wish to introduce Japanese arts and crafts to the rest of the world. We present to you items that you will not find anywhere else, such as KIMONOS, TEXTILES, ceramics, wood products, bamboo products, etc. Simple but unique and one-of-a-kind.

Gorgeous kimono well received. Colours are slightly lighter than they appear in the photo. The inside and details of the kimono looked read, but are more orange/peach in real life. Still very pretty.
