1940s Floral Pastel Hand Painted Pink & Blue Silk Kimono designer-ceil-chapman rare and extremely collectible nowThis stunning silk kimono has a dreamy and romantic print in shades of pinks and blues that range from the palest of colors to a deeply saturated pastel. It looks to have never been worn or used and would be perfect to use as wedding kimono or on your honeymoon, or to top an evening ensemble. Of course it also works as a lingerie piece for the boudoir as well. It is just lovely and one of the best I have seen. The print is hand screened and painted
