From a Meisen kimono with bold chrysanthemums arranged on a black background.

Chrysanthemums have meanings such as ``nobility'' and ``nobility'' because they are the emblem of the imperial family.

The chrysanthemum pattern is also an auspicious pattern that has the meaning of warding off evil spirits.

The gorgeous and impressive Rangiku expresses its strong vitality with its large, long petals blooming profusely.

The use of bright colors to express chrysanthemums is a typical color scheme from the Taisho to early Showa periods, and can be said to be a symbol of the era when culture flourished.

Meisen - A plain -woven silk fabric using a technique called kasuri . This is a yarn-dyed textile that dyes the threads before they are woven. The warp threads are lined up at evenly spaced widths and are divided into upper and lower parts one by one, and the weft threads are threaded between them, which is repeated many times. It is characterized by the texture of the pattern, which is created by weaving with different colors of the warp and weft threads. Meisen was all the rage during the Taisho and Showa periods, but today it is a valuable textile that is only produced in small numbers.
