A small winter UCHIKAKE which seems to fit the dolls in this series. The UCHIKAKE is made of a variety of fabrics. The collar is a fine black velvet. The inner lining is a beige silk gauze. The upper three fourths of the UCHIKAKE seems to be made of a synthetic fabric with a stylized brown and white checkered pattern woven into the cloth. The lower quarter of the UCHIKAKE and edges of the sleeves are of a deep purple synthetic fabric with a rose brown and grey floral motif woven into the fabric. The shoulder area is reinforced with a white cloth. Batting is between the outer and inner linings and held in place with yellow embroidery thread and knotted throughout the piece.
