Japanese Silk-Blend Geometric Kimono with Color-Block Interior

$1,150.00

This striking Japanese kimono is crafted from a luxurious silk-blend textile and showcases a bold, modernist composition of color and geometry. The exterior features a rich green ground animated by vertical brush-stroke motifs in purple and chartreuse, creating a rhythmic, painterly effect reminiscent of mid-century Japanese textile design.

The interior reveals a dramatic color-block lining in warm red and soft peach, offering a vivid contrast and an elegant surprise when worn or displayed. Cut in a traditional open-front silhouette with relaxed sleeves, the piece drapes beautifully and reads equally well as wearable art or a collectible textile.
