This Kimono is a piece of a dying art in Egypt, an absolute show stopper and a one of a kind Kimono! It is made of 100% wool hand woven on a loom by an absolute master in his craft. Ali, a 77 year old great grandfather who has been hand looming since he was 10 is an artist, in the way he never makes two Kimonos with the exact same color patterns even if he uses the same pallets. He weaves thousands of threads and metallic or gold threads together by hand to bring this beautiful Kimono to life. He believes that every Kimono is an independent and unique piece and gives it the attention to detail and love accordingly. As Ali ages, these Kimonos become more and more precious as he becomes less able to make them due to old age so be sure that you will own a piece of history like a Bach painting with these Kimonos.
You can wear this Kimono if you want to grab everyone's attention in any given place, with it's extremely luxe and luxurious look and vibrant colors. It is also extremely practical for use around the house, gatherings, dinners, or just to snuggle in during the cold winter days. You can wear it over jeans and a shirt or in the comfort of your home. It is made of 100% wool and is great to heat you up but is extremely soft to the touch.
This piece is simply a piece of art!
