VINTAGE 1940s ASIAN/KOREAN EMBROIDERED BLUE SILK KIMONO/ROBE This auction is for a beautiful vintage Asian kimono or robe from the mid-1940s. My dad was in the Army and stationed... in South Korea just after World War II and brought this home for my mother. She treasured it, but never wore it, and stored it away for all these years. I assume it's Korean. Constructed of blue silk with beige silk trim at the hem and collar, with embroidery everywhere and tiny frogs for the front closure. It's all lined, but I see hand-stitches on the inside of the collar. It's in good condition for its age, but silk does deteriorate over time—so it does have slight areas of wear on the collar edge and side slits. But still a wonderful vintage textile!
