{"product_id":"casper-friendly-ghost-reversible-sukajan-witch-japan-map","title":"Sukajan reversible de Casper, el fantasma amigable, bruja, mapa de Japón y bordado de sakura, reverso de brocado dorado","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"jp-product\" data-world=\"Yokosuka \u0026amp; Amekaji\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"jp-lede\"\u003eA character sukajan of real eccentric charm: Casper the Friendly Ghost and a young witch on a broomstick fly across an embroidered map of Japan, its cities named in red thread among pink sakura. Reversed, the cartoon disappears into a champagne-gold Japanese scenic brocade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne side is executed in black satin with smoky purple-plum sleeves and black decorative shoulder stripes. Casper, bright white against the black ground, flies alongside a blonde witch dressed in red on a broomstick, its warm brown and orange tones bridging the bright character embroidery and the gold-brown reverse. Behind and beside them lies a large embroidered outline map of Japan, so the pair appear to fly across the country rather than float above a decorative map, giving the design a storybook quality. “Japan” is embroidered above the characters in flowing orange-red script, and large pink sakura in multiple tones with pale centers and green leaves decorate the lower part of the map side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe map is unusually detailed, naming Sapporo, Aomori, Sendai, Tachikawa, Tokyo, Yokohama, Yokosuka, Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Hiroshima, Kure, Shimonoseki, Hakata and Sasebo in red embroidery; several, including Yokosuka, Sasebo, Kure and Yokohama, carry strong associations with Japanese port and military culture. Japan-map jackets are deeply tied to the souvenir-jacket tradition, communicating a garment made in remembrance of time spent in Japan; here the usual military or animal narrative becomes a whimsical character journey. On the front, one chest shows Casper and the witch together while the other carries a cluster of pink sakura, an asymmetrical arrangement in which each side contributes a different part of the story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurned inside out, the jacket becomes an elegant champagne-gold brocade bomber with richer bronze and caramel-brown sleeves. In place of embroidery, woven Japanese-style scenic motifs, trees, blossoms, traditional architecture with pagoda-like rooflines, landscape scenes and garden elements, are rendered tonally in pale silver-white against the metallic textile. The weave recalls fabrics used for obi, kimono accessories, formal bags and decorative interiors; at some angles the imagery is subtle, and under stronger light the trees, architecture and landscape come forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two faces offer two aesthetics: playful, graphic black and purple with Casper, witch, map, cities and sakura; and understated gold and bronze brocade with a traditional textile atmosphere. The piece belongs to a later, more playful character-fashion tradition, yet its map, place names and reversibility keep the historical lineage of the sukajan clearly visible, placing it between Japanese textile collecting, animation memorabilia and vintage streetwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Later vintage or retro Japanese character sukajan, not an original occupation-era souvenir jacket; undated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin-style shell; brocade reverse; embroidery thread; polyester; rib knit; metal zipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Character face: black satin body, smoky purple or muted plum sleeves, black shoulder stripes, black ribbing with purple accents; embroidery in white, red, pink, yellow, green, orange and cream.
