Description:

These are hand-braided silk vintage ties made in Japan from the 1950s to 1980s, sometimes older. They are used but clean and in excellent condition; Cords are sold in pairs so if used for crafts or creative projects you get 24 braided cords.

These type himo (cords, also called kumi-himo) are made originally for use with women's haori (kimono jacket). This type himo  is worn as an accessory. Each cord is attached to the loops located on each lapel on the front waist area of the haori, and then tied together. They should be tied loosely as they are not intended to close or bunch up the haori, but are more of an accessory; also, note that this type kimono coat is worn hanging down in front, not crossed or tied with an obi(sash).
