This is a
fukuro obi with luxurious folding fan shape pattern, which is woven with gold and silver metallic coated threads.
The word at the tare end means pure gold foils are used to the golden threads which seem to shine especially gorgeously.
The fans are adorned with long tail bird, kiku (chrysanthemum) or 'karabana'(imaginary Chinese flower).
Textile is silk, and it has soft touch.
The folding line is rather deeply marked.
However, as a whole, it's in very good condition.
