This is a cool
maru obi from around Taisho period(1912-1926). Dragon circle pattern is woven boldly!
Textile is exquisite silk, and has soft touch.
It has a prominent folding line, and there are some strong fray ( weft yarns are missing there ) - we marked them in the figure as triangle.
It has some other flaws as photos show. However, as a whole it is in very good condition.
