Women's Red Rosefinch Kimono

Luxurious handspun, handwoven wool with contrast hand-stitched details bring together traditional elements with modern styles. Named after the Rosefinch bird, that has various shades of red in its plumage, this kimono has also been naturally dyed a beautiful shade of red using Sappanwood.

In a woman’s pattu, it’s the mark of authenticity that the piece was woven on a rachch (a local loom) and not the newer frame loom which can weave wider fabric.
