A furisode is a type of traditional Japanese kimono characterized by its long, loose sleeves. The word “furisode” literally translates to “swinging sleeves” in Japanese. This type of kimono is typically worn by young, unmarried women on special occasions such as coming-of-age ceremonies (seijin shiki), weddings, and formal parties.
Furisodes are formal kimonos traditionally made from beautiful silks in vibrant colors and designs that evoke Japanese symbolism. These beautiful representations of traditional Japanese craftsmanship make them wonderful wall hangings.
This very interesting collection is a mini-encyclopedia of Japanese textiles. Each volume is written by a specialist, historian or museum curator.
