    Description

    This is a Kamishimo jacket and hakama made for a samurai
    . The families samurai crest is displayed on the back of the hakama. This was from Kyoto, Japan.
    It is stiff and most likely made from hemp. There is some insect damage look closely at the photos please.
    This would be perfect for a display in a dojo.
    A kamishimo description we found online:
    This two piece outfit, called a kamishimo, was the everyday formal wear of the Japanese samurai and would have been worn over a kimono. The upper garment, called a kataginu, is sleeveless with extended shoulders stiffened with paper. The two vertical panels at the front of the kataginu would have been tucked into the trousers, or hakama, which have narrow ties and a waist board designed to give support to the back. The pleats of the hakama, five in front and two at the back, are believed to symbolise the virtues of a samurai: courage, benevolence, justice, courtesy, sincerity, loyalty and honour.
    Kamishimo are generally made of hemp rather than silk and are patterned using stencils. The family crest, or
    mon
    , of the samurai, resisted with paste and then brushed with pigments, appears on the front and back of the kataginu and the backboard of the hakama.
