This striped ramie haori in Tokugawa Art Museum was used by Tsunanari, the third clan master of the TOKUGAWA family of Owari (1652– 1699).
The author's conclusion is that it is a work made in the Genroku Era (1688-1704) with cloth from Okinawa. If so, it is very precious because
almost no examples of striped or kasuri cloth from seventeenth century Okinawa remain. The entire piece and details are shown in Pls. I, II and III, and figs. 1 and 2. Figs. 3 to 11 are nineteenth century examples of striped cloth and kasuri cloth kept by the SHŌ family, the former lord family of Okinawa.
