The original collar has been left intact to show the origin of this stunning textile. The front is a woven brocade with a myriad of auspicious symbols in silk and gilt thread and the reverse is made from the authentic original silk lining of the garment in lucky red.

Cranes (Tsuru) believed to live for a thousand years and inhabit the land of the immortals. Symbolise longevity and good fortune. A pair represent a happy marriage.
