Antique Japanese Mino. Mino is a traditional Japanese garment, a raincoat made out of rice straw. Most likely early Showa, from Tohoku region. Seen in Mingei museums in Japan but rarely found sold in stores. Some expected signs of use and damage due to aging, but generally in good vintage condition. Expect some parts to fall off during delivery, and when item is moved (it stays fine while hung/displayed). Wonderful art/decor on the wall.
*The last image is taken at Kanjiro Kawai House in Kyoto showing a beautiful display of Mino in a different style.[SHORTDESCRIPTION]

ABOUT TONERICO MUSEUM
Truly a hidden gem, TONERICO MUSEUM is a space that itself is actually a piece of artwork - the building, location, the air, the sound, amazing collection of vintage and handcrafted beauties, and what is more the people behind all of it. Located on the hill back of the small pond in Mashiko town in Tochigi prefecture, this exquisite place has given countless love to those who visited. It will be closing its doors later this year, so sadly, but we are very honored to have a small collection of their special vintage curation here on Uguisu store website to share with the world.
