ID Help for vintage Kimonos & Obi

[glasswindchimes]

Found at an estate sale.  I have 3 kimonos & 2 obi.  The salmon color obi is from a different sale, & story was it was brought back from Japan by an American teacher before WWII. The other items are from the estate of a Japanese family. All are meticulously hand sewn. I would appreciate any info about these, name of pattern? use?

Authentic vintage kimonos can be viewed both in Clothing and in Collectibles/Japanese/Kimonos and Collectibles/Japanese/Obis.  I'd first look in Collectibles.

That will give you an idea of how they are presented and described, especially if you look at the SOLD pieces.

There are numerous resources available on the web to help you learn about the meanings of various kimono patterns.  To the extent that serious kimono collectors are already familiar with these, it may not be worth your while to offer up text to identify or describe the patterns. Instead, good pictures will serve you better, in my opinion.
