Japanese Kimono
24 May 2021
Description

Post WW1 kimono brought over from Japan by my great grandfather. It was in my moms possession until I recieved it about 30 years ago. I have kept it in a box since then but it has some stains prior to me but I am afraid to remove them. I am looking to sell it but do not know it’s worth if anything. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Robin Keller

What does this mean?

Thank you for contacting Mearto. This is an antique kimono with silver embroidery work throughout. Kimonos like these usually sell for between $100 and $200. The stain would affect the price negatively. I added a few links below to sales of other kimonos to give you an idea of the market.
