Pieces from a Robe (Kosode) with Autumn Grasses first half of the 18th century Japan These textiles have a lighthearted pattern of various autumn grasses, including Chinese bellflowers (kiky), bush clover (hagi), and miscanthus grass (susuki) on a background of large triangular shapes.

One such reference occurs in a book of 1716, Hiinagata kiku no i (Pattern Book: Chrysanthemum Well). Among its several designs for kosode with backgrounds of triangular shapes similar to those seen here is one labeled "krin.". Pieces from a Robe (Kosode) with Autumn Grasses. Japan. first half of
