About the book

Guide to the Kimono by Justine Sobocan is a non-fiction book for adult readers.

An informative, introductory guide to identifying, dating, and pricing antique and vintage Japanese kimono. Finally, the kimono can be appreciated and understood by all. This concise, fully illustrated guide examines the ever-popular and iconic kimono-a form of traditional Japanese clothing that has existed for centuries and continues to be a part of Japan's rich cultural heritage.

Aimed at kimono enthusiasts and collectors of all levels, this up-to-date resource identifies and explains different types of antique and vintage kimono and kimono-related items, materials, construction, and motifs. Full-colour images and easy-to-follow descriptions arm readers with the knowledge they need to determine age and value of kimono, as the guide demystifies and debunks myths and misconceptions about this mysterious and often-misunderstood garment.
