The term "kasane-no-shikome" originally referred to the colors produced by combining the two sides of a single versatile garment, but later the term "kasane-no-shikome" came to include a combination of colors used in a number of garments, such as a juni-hitoe (twelve-layered robe).
This book describes more than 260 color combinations, using the character for "heavy" for the former and "attack" for the latter.
The book also contains a variety of tone classification tables and references. Enjoy the Heian people's delicate aesthetic sense for the "seasons" and the beauty of their color schemes.
With 48 color chart samples, this book is a must-have for all aspects of clothing, design, crafts, and customs.
