Princess Takamado (Hisako) attended the opening of her special exhibition "Travel Netsuke: Princess Takamado Photo Exhibition and Contemporary Netsuke Collection" at Sankeien Garden in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture. During the opening, Princess Takamado gave a speech explaining the details of her collection of 'Netsuke' sculptures.
A netsuke is a miniature sculpture, originating in 17th century Japan. Initially a simply-carved button fastener on the cords of an inro box, netsuke later developed into ornately sculpted objects of craftsmanship. Netsuke production was most popular during the Edo period (1615-1868). "Travel Netsuke: Princess Takamado Photo Exhibition and Contemporary Netsuke Collection" was held for the first time in 2018 at the Yokohama Museum of Art (Nishi-ku, Yokohama).
Great suit! Wonderful, lovely, engaging Princess Takamado.

I love her mask - what a good choice for a visit to an art gallery.
ردحذفQu'elle est belle, toujours vêtue avec distinction, avenante mais au niveau de la couleur de ses bas -je ne doute pas qu'elle en porte- leur couleur Chair n'est pas Tendance ; nous pouvons le remarquer particulièrement sur la deuxième photo - De couleur gris-clair, ils auraient été plus en harmonie avec le bleu lumineux de son tailleur/jupe !
ردحذفPrincess Takamado is a class act. I would have loved to hear her speech on this subject. Both the ladies have nice suits. I like the textured fabric of the pink one. Looks like everyone is bare foot.

حذفPrincess Takamado (born 1953) speaks with an English because she lived most of the first 30 years of her life in Britain. Her father was an industrialist and moved the family there when she was a small child, where she became fluent in English.
She has 2 degrees from Cambridge University and finally moved back to Japan in 1982 where she married Prince Takamado. They have 3 adult daughters.

Lovely suit--beautiful shade of blue. Love the bag and gloves in hand--very much an example of an earlier age of true elegance.
