The best way to display a kimono is on a t-shaped form. This is how I have
always mounted kimonos and how I have always seen them mounted. The t-shape
allows the viewer to see the pattern on the kimono and also provides the
proper support for the garment.

"Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that
