Uncut Robe: Proper Right Front and Back Panel
c. 1890s
Location: Not on view
Description
This is one of three panels of silk netting that would have been cut out and sewn into a gown. This continuous length of fabric would become the gown's proper right front and back panel. The airy fabric is embroidered in gold, white, blues, pinks, and violets with designs of phoenix birds, chrysanthemums, and symbols of longevity.- {{cite web|title=Uncut Robe: Proper Right Front and Back Panel|url=false|author=|year=c. 1890s|access-date=25 December 2025|publisher=Cleveland Museum of Art}}
