Ratings & Reviews
Whatever is going on in the world, my home is my sanctuary. I try to surround myself in beauty and I knew when I ordered the Plum and Crane Short Silk Kimono that I was doing just that. When I opened the package, I actually gasped. It has a beautiful pattern with shiny gold accents. The feel is so luxurious which makes me feel so special and amazing. My skin is thanking me for such a gift. This is a quality piece and I highly recommend.
