This is a contemporary fukuro obi with luxurious 'karabana'( imaginary Chinese flower) and iridescent mottled pattern, which is woven with gold and shiny threads.
Its design and colors are fabulous!
Textile is exquisite silk, and has soft touch.
It's unfinished with both the ends left open and no stiff lining inside, though it's used.
As the photos and the sheet show, there is a folding line, though it's not much disturbing with the black line running through the middle.
As a whole, it's in very good condition.
*Approx background color - gold
Softness ( Exceptionally Soft, □Soft, Medium, Comparatively Stiff, Stiff )
