This is a vintage vivid pink nagoya obi. It has charming geometric pattern, which is dyed with
shibori technique.
shibori is Japanese tie dyeing technique, and it gives the textile very unique texture. Textile is exquisite silk, and has soft touch.
It has some flaws as photos show, but they are slight or small and not disturbing. As a whole it is in very good condition and can be worn formally.
