Description

A Vintage Japanese Purple Silk Kimono / Furisode, circa 1930, decorated with a multi-coloured design of fan shaped floral panels joined by scrolling ribbons, Fully lined in red and cream silk.

This example has a long tie at the back that is brought across the front to hold it in place under the bust.

The furisobe (translates as 'swinging sleeves') is a formal type of kimono worn by young unmarried women, usually worn for a special occasion such as the tea ceremony or weddings. They are generally of smooth, brightly coloured silk and the sleeves are attached to the body of the kimono only for a short distance, the inner edge is open, allowing the lining to show on the inner edge.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
