Shinbashi
4160-1Product Description
Solid Ink™ Horitomo Series Shinbashi - Towards the end of the Meiji Era (1868-1912) this colour was popular amongst the geisha of the Shinbashi district in Tokyo. It is a reserved but still bright, blue tone. Aside for its obvious use for kimono colour, it works great for yurei (ghosts) and yokai (supernatural creatures).
We do our best to provide high quality photos of each colour, but every computer has its own personality, so please note colours may vary slightly from screen to screen.
