This is a charming
nagoya obi with 'karabana'(imaginary flower in China) like pattern which is dyed with shibori(tie-dye) technique. Textile is soft plain silk and slightly has shibori's characteristic texture. As the figure shows, it has some patinas from its age. However they are not so disturbing and as a whole it is in very good condition. Please check details with photos and the figure.
