christmas book no. 2

My friend Mari found me a lovely book called 'Kimono and the colours of Japan Kimono collection of Katsumi Yumioka' by Katsumi Yumioka.
The book is divided into colour catagories, and each one has a desciption of how the colour is achieved and it's significance.
For example' We use white black and gold as an expression of cheer. Red indicates sun, blood and fire. White black and silver express sadness'
