This is a dramatic
nagoya obi with wonderful noble woman picture, which is dyed with
yuzen technique.
Textile is sioze silk and has soft touch.
It has some flaws as photos show.
The stain A seems to be small dyestuff stain ( not disturbing).
Stain C is rather prominent stain in a maegara( the patterned part of belt part, which will be the belly part when it is tied ) part ( another maegara part is OK ). Stain B are the smudges(and fray) by tying.
Please check detail photos.
