A top-quality masterpiece carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen

The jacquard woven material, which has the texture of silk, is woven with the noble paulownia, bamboo, phoenix, and kirin motifs favored by aristocrats throughout history. Dyed using the traditional hand-dyed Yuzen shading technique, it is sprinkled with glittering gold for an even more luxurious and gorgeous finish. The streamers are in the traditional five colors, based on the auspicious wavy undulation pattern. A winged flying dragon, the highest ranking, is depicted in the center to enhance the dragon's soaring power in the legend of the Dragon Gate.
