Vintage Kimono Children's Novelty Toy Print Silk Cat As Is ~ Use for Fabric??

Description: This kimono is very special! It is a very old estate find and I have held onto it for a few decades thinking that I could use the fabric for a project! It is sold as-is/as found. The fabric is truly special...featuring vintage asian childhood toys. It appears to be handmade and there is no tag. Based on similar items, I believe that it is silk. It is soft and supple. It is lined with an ivory material. The condition of the item as a kimono is fair. It needs repair under arms and some other seams may need reenforcement however as fabric, it is in great condition! There is only one tie strap on front of kimono. So whether its repaired and used as a child's outfit / costume or used repurposing the fabric for other projects, its is a really unique piece. I have not washed the kimona. It has been stored in a flourcloth pillow case in a wardrobe since I aquired it. I always leave fabric treatment and cleansing for the collector who may know more than I about it. I am defiently not a fabric pro so rather than make a mistake on vintage apparel, I always leave it as - is. Measurements are shown in photos. The length from top of collar to bottom hem is ". The measurements across the arms / chest from end of sleeve to other end of sleeve is 33". If you need further measurements, photos, more information, etc.., please just ask! :) All items sold as is, so please review pictures carefully and ask questions if not sure. I do my very best when photographing, researching, going over an item from top to bottom, etc... but again, please ask for more info before bidding if you have any doubts or concerns. Our home is smoke free and currently pet free. I am clearing out my vintage fabric, linen and novelty sewing collections this month. Most came from my family's estate while other pieces have just been collected and covetted over the years. I am hoping someone can use this special items and give them the new life that they deserve!
