This rinzu (damask) kimono boasts intricate yuzen-painted "komainu" (mythical lion-dogs) and temari (thread ball) motifs. It incorporates metallic gold-colored supplementary threads and embroidery, enhancing its visual allure. Measuring 48 inches (122 cm) from sleeve-end to sleeve-end and standing at a height of 66 inches (168 cm), it features komainu figures resembling Chinese guardian lions, commonly seen guarding the entrances of inner shrines in Shinto shrines. The kimono's tall, striking graphic suggests its likely use for formal dance or theatrical purposes.
