Soft, lustrous brown double-breasted suit from Kobe, cut in a postwar Japanese line — broad shoulder, slightly shorter sleeve, clean trousers. Quiet, not flashy.

Fabric / Tag Background
Selvedge is marked “… KEORI EXCELLENCE” — a higher-grade Japanese wool (毛織) cloth name used by good export-era ateliers. It signals all-wool, denser, dressier fabric, not a fashion logo.

Heritage
Tailored under a lineage connected to a Kobe-based Japanese atelier — once operated by the seller’s great-grandfather, and worn for decades by her grandfather, a renowned Japanese scientist who first identified dextrin, a compound now used in dental care worldwide.
This suit carries not just tailoring heritage, but the legacy of a family dedicated to invisible excellence — in science, in craftsmanship, and in the quiet dignity of how one chooses to live.
