Metallic gold sleeves and a deep blue landscape jacquard lining complete a marine tableau that reimagines, rather than reproduces, The Great Wave off Kanagawa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black satin body is a night-like ground for layered embroidery. Two whales emerge between towering, curling wave crests, surrounded by turquoise sea spray, foam and rolling currents, while sweeping kasumi-style cloud bands travel across the shoulder and around the red sun, giving the whole jacket a remarkable sense of motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front repeats the theme in two mirrored circular medallions, each holding a whale beneath a curling wave and red sun. Champagne-gold sleeves with contrasting black shoulder panels frame the composition, and inside, a deep blue woven jacquard of traditional landscape scenery is revealed only when the jacket is opened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wave stands for the immense force and continual movement of nature; the whales add endurance, depth and passage through the unknown, and the rising sun renewal, vitality and Japan itself. The restrained black, gold and turquoise palette is more sophisticated than brightly colored novelty sukajan, suiting Japanese streetwear, archive fashion and textile-art collections alike. The short silhouette works with black denim, wide trousers, boots or minimal streetwear, and on a stand or wall hanger the back reads as contemporary textile art in the ukiyo-e spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jacket likely dates from the late Y2K to early-2010s era of premium Japanese wagara streetwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hyakka Ryoran\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Likely late Y2K to early 2010s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glossy satin-finish textile; multicolored machine embroidery; woven jacquard lining; rib-knit trim; metal zipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black, antique gold, turquoise, ivory, crimson and deep blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e L (manufacturer's size); approximately a men's M or a relaxed women's L depending on preferred silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Measured flat: back length approx. 61–62 cm \/ 24–24.4 in · Chest width approx. 59–60 cm \/ 23.2–23.6 in · Hem width approx. 54–55 cm \/ 21.3–21.7 in · Raglan sleeve, collar to cuff, approx. 78–80 cm \/ 30.7–31.5 in · Underarm sleeve approx. 49–50 cm \/ 19.3–19.7 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raglan sleeves; full front zipper; angled hand pockets; black, silver and blue striped rib-knit collar, cuffs and waistband; dense front and back embroidery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotifs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two whales; Hokusai-inspired wave crests; crimson sun; kasumi cloud bands; sea spray; front wave-and-whale medallions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood pre-owned condition; the principal embroidery remains bold, dimensional and visually impressive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural satin creasing, light surface wear and minor age-related variation consistent with previous use and storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease review all photographs closely, as they form an important part of the condition description.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis design is documented as a Hyakka Ryoran Hokusai-inspired whale sukajan in manufacturer's size L.
