She's a beautiful pre world war black crested furisode. I really enjoy the crispness and elegance of the yuzen work on this piece, so I included some nice big shots of the details. This piece is beautifully preserved, though there is some discolouration on the black parts. That's to be expected given her age, though. For the most part she's still a nice rich black. I named her nightfall, because the dark background and subdued colours remind me of an evening scene. Also, the musical instruments are just right for an evening's entertainment.

I got this because is has a list of Maiko that were working during that time. I thought it would be great for my list of Retiree's.

And then I won some more programs! :lol:

^ funny story is, I was in the middle of a show here in town. The night before the show's load in date, I bid and won this auction (wednesday night I believe). Fast forward to Friday evening, I am opening up a box of what I BELIEVE is back orders of Shonen Jump in bulk, and I have this pretty staring me in the face. It came from California in express time. The kicker is...

...I HAD NOT PAID FOR THE ITEM YET.

I spent about thirty minutes going, *point point pointity POINT* "WHY IS THIS HERE!!?!?one!"

BTW, the fading? Not nearly as bad as the pics. Definitely a steal!
