The Imperial White: A Hanagara & Koma-Embroidery Masterpiece

At Renaras, we curate textiles that serve as the intersection of art and aristocracy. We are distinguished to present this resplendent Furisode, a garment of such pristine beauty and commanding stature that it speaks the universal language of imperial grace.

A Canvas of Purity and Splendour The foundation of this masterpiece is a lustrous, heavy-gauge Pure Silk (Rinzu) in a shade of creamy imperial white. In the world of vintage Japanese textiles, a white base of this calibre is exceptionally rare; it is an unforgiving canvas that demands perfection.

Across this field of light flows the Hanagara (Floral Design), a vibrant profusion of peonies and chrysanthemums interplaying with the Goshoguruma (Imperial Carriage). This motif, historically reserved for the nobility of the Heian court, symbolizes a life laden with happiness and wealth.

The Art of Gold: Koma-Nui What elevates this piece to the realm of Haute Couture is the opulent needlework. The contours of the carriage and blossoms are defined by Koma Embroidery—thick cords of genuine gold and silver foil are hand-couched onto the silk surface. This creates a tactile, three-dimensional relief that catches the chandelier light with every graceful movement.

The European Vision: A Statement of Grandeur For our distinguished European clientele, this Furisode offers a silhouette of relaxed grandeur that Western couture rarely achieves.

The Occasion: We envision this masterpiece worn as a spectacular evening coat over a slip dress for an opera premiere at La Scala, a ball in Vienna, or a high-society wedding in the French Riviera.

The Fit: Uniquely, this garment boasts a Total Length of 166cm. This "Tall Size" is an extraordinary find in vintage silk, offering a sweeping, majestic drape perfectly proportioned for the modern European stature.

It is not simply a kimono; it is an inheritance of beauty.
