This is a fashionable
nagoya obi with Art Deco style pattern of geometrical flowers dyed in black.
Textile has a little stiff touch. It seems to be blend of jinken(rayon) and other fabric.
Only one side of the narrow belt part has the maegara (front pattern), and patinas can be seen there.
Along the folds, discoloration is rather outstanding.
The whitish line in the otaiko (square bow) photo is not a flaw but just a whitish weft peeking out.
For the details, please refer to the photos and the sheet.
