A vintage mens cotton muslin juban with a bold printed repeat design featuring a swooping hawk and pine tree motifs which would make a stylish wrap for either a man or a woman. 

The boldness, keen eyesight and predatory nature made taka or hawks appropriate symbols for the Japanese warrior class & were subsequently adopted as traditional male symbols. This unlined juban is in excellent condition  & has a navy blue silk collar.

In contrast to women's kimono, men's kimonos are typically in subdued, darker colours with subtle patterns and textures, however the juban, worn as a secondary layer under the kimono is often richly patterned or may have a hand-painted design.
