This is a vintage nagoya obi with small embroidered chrysanthemums scattered about the otaiko (square boa) pattern area and the maegara (front pattern) area.
Textile is shusu silk, and it has soft and smooth touch.
It's lined with another blackish fabric.
As the photos and the sheet show, it has some flaws.
The X marks means one of the white mums got orangish and faint whitish stains can be seen.
There are a few scratched lines on the maegara area.
However, they are not much outstanding and so it's in very good condition.
