Fabric Description:This high-quality, 1930s-1950s kimono silk is a lightweight fabric, slightly translucent; Background color is white but other colors cover much of the space in geometric figures both rectangular and obtuse forms; there are also other abstract designs within the various black-lined rectangular(and other) shapes, some apparent leaves/blossoms; truly another modernistic, perhaps abstractionist look from early post-World War 2 1950s; dominant colors used are dark moss-green, white, gray, pink, and dark burgundy red; Motifs are same on both sides (Please see close-ups).
Colors:Please use our text color descriptions to complement your sense of the fabric due to differences in contrast and color on different devices.
Condition: Excellent.
