Boys kimono cranes

Beautiful boys in dark blue kimono with cranes, a crane nests pines. In Japan cranes symbolize happiness and long life (in the legend the Crane lives for 1000 years). Pine also stands for happiness, dedication and longevity. Between these symbols of happiness there are seigaiha (waves) and kikkou (tortoise shell).

This boys kimono is handmade from smooth Japanese silk and is hand painted.

There are slightly yellowed stains (see photo).

Dimensions: 78 cm long and 72 from sleeve to sleeve.
