Childrens Kimono
These childrens kimono and accessories are used for festival events, for example 'The Miyamairi' (we would describe it as a christening robe) is wrapped around the baby and it's grandmother, to be taken to the Shinto shrine to be named and blessed. At a ceremony called Shichi-go-san (7-5-3) the children wear special kimono to celebrate their age. Ceremonial childrens kimono can be richly embroidered or yuzen dyed, they make wonderful interior design statements. Note - Some of our customers have purchased childrens kimono as christening gifts, they are unusual, one offs and have the makings of a family heirloom which can be passed down to future generations.
