Japanese Wedding Kimono – Uchikake (Pristine Condition)

A breathtaking vintage Japanese bridal Uchikake, this ceremonial kimono is a masterpiece of traditional textile artistry. Richly woven in vibrant red silk and adorned with gold and silver metallic embroidery, the robe features auspicious motifs including flying cranes, cherry blossoms, imperial carts (gosho-guruma), and golden clouds—all symbolizing longevity, happiness, and prosperity.

Crafted to trail gracefully behind the bride, this Uchikake is heavily padded at the hem and designed to be worn over another kimono, open and untied. The intricate embroidery is likely hand-applied and reflects the elegance of formal Japanese wedding traditions.
