Vintage kimono clutch - Black scales
Vintage item
Details & Origin
This vintage kimono clutch is made of silk which gives it a very particular shine. You can notice the bag changes colours in different lights, and though it seems different on some photos, the colour is black.
The motif represents abstract flower blossoms arranged in rows of scales.
Clutches like this ones, entirely made of black fabric, are originally designed to be worn for funeral ceremonies, and have to be elegant but sober. Re-styled with a different outfit, the monochrome textured motifs gain a real sense of modernity! The inside is made of plain silk twill and the whole clutch is consolidated with a sturdy structure.
Condition
Used. Perfect condition.
Size
20,5 cm long
