The garment is cut in a full-length formal style with short sleeves finished in a red lining flash at the cuff edge. The overall form is elegant and well-proportioned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe design is a scattered trailing botan (牡丹) peony composition rendered in the yūzen (友禅) tradition — each bloom individually shaded in orange-red, blush pink, and creamy white. Flowers appear in multiple states of bloom, from tight bud to fully open face, lending the design a naturalistic rhythm. The painterly outlining and soft color gradation are hallmarks of accomplished yūzen dyework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe botan peony holds a privileged place in Japanese decorative arts, long associated with wealth, good fortune, and the beauty of summer. Known as 花王 (kaō) — the king of flowers — it appears across lacquer, textile, and ceramic traditions as an emblem of prosperity and feminine elegance. On a deep wine ground, the botan carries particular visual weight, the contrast between ground and motif creating a composition that is at once bold and refined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eCondition: [X — please add condition notes: any fading, soiling, pulls, or repairs; overall silk condition and luster.]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eA striking Showa-period silk kimono in a classic and commercially appealing colorway — the deep burgundy chirimen ground and full botan peony design make this an excellent candidate for wear, display, or textile repurposing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shogun's Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49412251681085,"sku":"24L0177","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/2348\/3709\/files\/IMG_7013.jpg?v=1776398627","url":"https:\/\/shogunsgallery.com\/products\/vintage-japanese-red-silk-kimono-peonie-motif","provider":"Shogun's Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
